Building confidence, breaking barriers, and transforming lives
Our Mission
To empower women to achieve economic independence by providing professional attire, career support, and a network of ongoing encouragement.
Our Story
Dress for Success Hamilton has been transforming lives since 2002, growing from a simple idea into a cornerstone of women's empowerment in the Waikato. We're proudly part of the global Dress for Success network, bringing international best practice to local women who need it most.
Over two decades, we've witnessed countless moments of transformation - that spark when a woman sees herself differently, stands taller, and steps forward with renewed confidence. Our journey continues as we work towards dressing 500 women each year by 2030.
