House of Colour Ltd is a privately owned British franchise company specialising in image consultancy services. Founded in the 1980s, it has over 350 franchise businesses operating across the UK, Dhabi, Abu Dhabi, Greece, Netherlands and the USA. House of Colour’s core services include providing Colour and Style Analysis consultations alongside traditional personal styling services, such as wardrobe edits and personal shopping.
Pioneers at House of Colour had the revolutionary idea 35+ years ago that people look and feel their best as their unique selves. This concept has transformed the business into a global brand. The foundations of House of Colour’s core services are grounded in psychological theories and colour science, with the organisation harnessing wisdom from its years in business with modern strategies from its growing international teams.
House of Colour’s ethos is to celebrate individuality and curate confidence. The organisation’s mission is to empower clients to build easy to manage, sustainable wardrobes that look incredible, deliver lasting confidence, and are representative of their authentic selves at every life stage. This is achieved by determining the combination of colours and styles that help people look and feel their best based on psychological theories and scientific analysis, rather than by following the latest trends. House of Colour’s image consultants are expertly trained to provide customised, unique feedback to each client.
House of Colour has ambitions to continue to grow its international presence and be recognised worldwide as experts and industry leaders in providing image consultancy services.
