“No matter what size I am, I’ve never been comfortable with my body. I know… We are our own worst critics. Dara not only always sees the best parts of me, but she always finds something for me to wear for any occasion to make me feel beautiful. She has an extensive knowledge of the industry such that no matter what my size is at the time, she has a brand to recommend for me to try because she knows that it will accentuate all the right parts of me to make me feel good about myself. She is always positive and never demeaning and has a way of not only choosing the right clothing, but choosing it with sensitivity. Dara is always up on the latest trends and has never steered me wrong. I would recommend Dara to all of my friends and colleagues without any hesitation!”

“If shopping & styling were an Olympic sport, Dara would be the reigning USA gold medalist. Besides her great taste, Dara is decisive, honest and practical! She has not only helped me find some of my favorite wardrobe pieces, but also talked me down from unnecessary purchases and saved me from shopping regret. Dara’s skills are not limited to store but she also shines in closet editing - she’s great at knowing what to keep or toss. Dara’s incredible organizational skills, honed from her many years of working in education are an invaluable asset in planning wardrobes for events, trips and more. Her warmth and boundless energy are a pleasure to be around. I’m so happy that she’s finally sharing her talent, style and shopping savviness with the world through Dress by Dara! I cannot recommend her highly enough. Run, don’t walk to book a session with Dara! You won’t regret it!”

“Dara has been on speed dial for everything from how to tuck a shirt or hem a pant to what to wear for some of the most special and memory-making events in my life. Not only does she have excellent taste and a seemingly encyclopedic knowledge of what is in store, how it fits and flatters body types and where to find great prices of worthy investments - but she guides with honesty and humor. Working in the media realm, I’ve collaborated with some of the top celebrity stylists nationwide and rarely do I encounter someone so innately talented, down to earth and able to take the pain out of a process many of us find daunting. She is budget respectful and has fantastic finds at ever range. You’ll be amazed and how she knows just what you need.”
