About Shirley Shalaby Modeling and Finishing Institute

Since 1990, Shirley Shalaby has pioneered educational standards in the art of etiquette and image consulting in Egypt. The author of two books in Arabic and English, the Art of Etiquette (2001) and Beyond Charm (2011) respectively, Shirley has enjoyed a long background in the field of image consulting in Canada, the USA and the UK, where she used to coach professional men and women on enhancing their image; including personality, deportment, social grace and personal appearance. Eager to disseminate these skills in Egypt, in 1990 Shirley established “En Vogue”, the very first Modeling and Finishing Institute in the Middle East, in the Egyptian capital of Cairo. Her first signature product was the Professional Modeling and Finishing Program that ran throughout the 90’s and into the 2000’s, whose alumni is among Egypt’s finest – TV personalities, actors and prominent entrepreneurs. Since then and across the Middle East, Shirley has constantly developed, tested and updated educational standards, manuals and norms in Corporate Style Advising through her tailored programs for leading corporate clients. Targeted to a wide background of participants – from middle managers, sales and service personnel, to diplomats and public figures – her seminars have been reported to boost personality development, emotional intelligence and improve overall well-being. She has cooperated with local and multinational organizations, hotels, airline companies, as well as diplomatic missions and hospitals in standardizing their image and helping them build a successful corporate representation. Besides conducting her Signature Seminars in private and group settings on the topics of social and business etiquette, image, color and style counseling in corporate and social milieus, prominent ladies in Lebanon, Jordan, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have also benefited from her one-on-one workshops.
