Dahlia is joined by Victoria Gullin Morelik, Smart Works' Head of Wardrobe to take a virtual step into the wardrobe that is built to clothe over 10,000 woman each year as part of their journey to employment.

Victoria shares the work that comes with building a wardrobe that needs to be fit for purpose to service multiple unique needs, be size inclusive and is reliant on donations.

As the longest standing member of the Smart Works charity Victoria shares her view of how the work has evolved over time and also her vision for Smart Works in the future. Victoria shares a personal view on the link between clothes and confidence and gives Dahlia her view on what it means to be well dressed and how rewarding it is to be able to offer that opportunity to others.

This series of Stressed But Well Dressed is recorded in collaboration with Smart Works. Stressed But Well Dressed brings conversations to life on the link between clothes and confidence, helping listeners to understand what it means to feel 'well dressed' and recognising that feeling starts from within. In each episode we will go behind the scenes of Smart Works sharing stories from CEO, coaches and clients and taking a look inside the wardrobe that will clothe over 10,000 women each year as part of their journey to employment .

Smart Works is a dynamic, high profile and fast-growing UK charity that exists to empower all women who need help getting into work. The charity’s service uses the power of high quality clothing and one-to-one coaching to help unemployed women fulfil their potential, get the job and transform their lives. Last year, Smart Works supported over 10,000 women through their service. 63% of these clients secured a job within one month of their appointment, gaining financial independence and transforming their lives. Since its founding in 2013, Smart Works has helped almost 50,000 women across the UK. The charity’s mission is that any woman who needs to use the service should be able to find her way to a Smart Works centre. The service is delivered in 11 centres across London, Manchester, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Birmingham, Newcastle, Reading and Leeds, and also offers virtual appointments to women outside of these areas.
