Cathy Csukas
Co-Founder & Co-CEO, AdLarge Media
My wardrobe is really extraordinary at this point! Over the years, Cathie and I have collaborated season in and season out, to choose pieces and create outfits that work for me and my busy life. I’m a loyal Carlisle customer and I enjoy the Showroom experience. Cathie’s been to my house a few times to edit my closet too, and that’s been fun, and really helpful too. Sometimes it just takes someone else to say, PITCH!

Cathie has helped me bring my wardrobe to a different level. Every piece I have is amazing. Perfectly cut and styled and the quality is unmatched. The pieces are also timeless. I am still complimented on some that are 5 years old which brings me to the longevity of the pieces as well and speaks to the quality too. Cathie has helped take me out of my comfort zone while respecting and understanding my limits. She never pushes and is the first to note if something does not fit well or is not “me”. When I arrive for my appointment, she is ready with the pieces she has preselected for me and they are usually exactly right. Beyond that, she is so personable and approachable that it is more than just a shopping experience. Worth every penny on every level!

I feel like I have a different seat at the table wearing these clothes (...CARLISLE). Cathie knows ahead of time what I’m going to respond to and she pulls those things aside, so the appointment is really fast and efficient.

I really like the way Carlisle coordinates so easily and Cathie’s a master at helping me see how all their pieces go together. I have NO TIME and she’s always ready with a collection of pieces meant just for me. She’ll meet with me before work and in about an hour we have a little capsule of clothes for the next season. She keeps track of what’s in my wardrobe so I don’t have to!

Cathie and I have worked together for over a year and she has been wonderful to engage with. As a stylist, she is current and sensitive to her clients' sense of style and preferences. As a person, she is positive, thoughtful and great fun. I was initially resistant to having a stylist help with my wardrobe, but this has been a really useful, efficient and enjoyable experience.

She gets me. Cathie knows what’s going to work for me, and I can shop for everything with her, from work to weekend stuff. She manages fittings and tailoring too, so never before has my wardrobe fit so well or looked so good! It’s a pleasure to step into my closet and have so many beautiful things to wear.
