A note from Odile

“For thirty-five years I pinned, fitted and adjusted clothes in the workrooms of Paris fashion houses.”

Bonjour, mes belles. I started as a young seamstress and finished as head fitter, and in all those years I learned one thing: the women who looked wonderful were not the youngest or the slimmest. Their clothes simply fit the body they had that day.

My daughter lives in Connecticut now, and every time I visit, her friends ask me the same questions at the kitchen table. So I wrote the answers down: how to measure, what to keep, what a tailor can save, and what to stop wearing. Just as I would show you at the fitting mirror.

À la prochaine, mes belles — until next time.

Odile

Questions

7-day money-back guarantee. Open it, measure yourself, go through your closet. If the book isn't for you, email us within 7 days of your purchase and you'll get every cent back. No forms, no questions.

Is this a printed book?

No. It's a PDF e-book, delivered by email right after you pay, and nothing is shipped. The tablet & computer edition is laid out on US Letter pages, so you can print the whole book, or only the pages you want, at home or at a copy shop.

What can I read it on?

Any phone, tablet or computer that opens a PDF, which is nearly all of them. The phone edition uses large print and one big picture per screen. The tablet & computer edition shows the full pages with the pictures at their largest.

How do I get it after I pay?

After checkout, Hotmart (the secure store that handles our payments) emails you an access link. Both editions are there to download. They are large files, so Wi-Fi is best.

I paid, but the book hasn't arrived. What should I do?

Don't worry, we'll put it right:

  1. Look for the email. It comes from Hotmart, usually within minutes. Check your Spam and Promotions folders too.
  2. Check the charge. If your card statement shows no Hotmart charge, the payment didn't go through, and you can simply try again.
  3. Write to us. Send your name and the date you ordered to saleh732222222@gmail.com, and we'll find your order and send your book.
Will it work for my shape and size?

Yes. You start by measuring yourself, so every chapter fits you rather than a model. There are chapters for curves and fuller figures, slender figures, petite (5′4″ and under; stores draw the line at 5′3″ or 5′4″) and tall.

Do I have to buy a new wardrobe?

No, and Odile would rather you didn't. Part Two starts with what is already in your closet, and one chapter shows what a tailor can save for far less than something new.

Is paying safe?

Yes. You pay on Hotmart's encrypted checkout page. Your card details go to Hotmart and are never shown to us.

How do I get a refund?

Email us at saleh732222222@gmail.com within 7 days of your purchase, or ask for it on your Hotmart purchase page. The full price goes back to the card you paid with; how soon it shows depends on your bank.
