Guiding Principles: 9 key principles for intentional dressing.
Discussion: How clothing reflects your artistic identity.
Dressing with intention goes beyond simply putting on clothes—it's a personal expression of who we are and how we want to feel.
Here are nine key principles to guide you in dressing with intention:
1. Set Your Intention: Start each day with a clear purpose. Choose outfits that resonate with your desired mindset. For a calm day, select soft hues; for confidence, opt for bold colors.
2. Begin Where You Are: Appreciate your current wardrobe. You don’t need perfection to start; declutter and see the potential in what you already own. Create new outfits using your existing pieces.
3. Indulge Your Creative Urges: Let your wardrobe be a space for self-expression. Ensure each item sparks joy and fits well. Use vibrant accessories or statement pieces to reflect your individuality.
4. Embrace the Evolution: Fashion is fluid. Allow your style to evolve as you explore your wardrobe. Keep an open mind and document outfits that inspire you.
5. Be Kind to Yourself: Practice self-acceptance and kindness. Choose clothing that flatters and feels good. Remember, your personal style is a journey of discovery.
6. Less is More: Embrace a capsule wardrobe. Fewer, intentional pieces lead to simpler decisions and a timeless style. Focus on versatile basics in neutral colors.
7. Letting Go: Embrace the freedom of letting go. Clear out items that no longer resonate with you, making space for new pieces that inspire.
8. Consider Your Legacy: Reflect on the message your wardrobe communicates. Choose sustainable and ethically produced clothing that aligns with your values.
9. Have Fun with It: Dressing should be joyful. Experiment with bold accessories and unexpected combinations. Schedule "style play days" to explore new looks.
By dressing with intention, you don't just transform your wardrobe - you elevate your entire mindset. Each piece you choose becomes a vibrant celebration of your unique individuality and boundless creativity, inviting the world to see the artist within you. Embrace your style as a canvas for self-expression, and watch how it can inspire not only you but everyone around you!

Importance of Personal Style: How fashion enhances creativity.
Contextual Dressing: Attire for studio, client meetings, and gallery openings.
In this section, I want to highlight the profound impact our attire has on how we express ourselves as artists. What we wear tells a story—not just about our personal style, but also about the art we create and the identity we cultivate. I’ve identified three key aspects of an artist's life where our clothing choices play a significant role: the studio, client meetings, and art show openings.
1. Studio Attire
At first glance, studio attire may seem unimportant—a space for creativity where comfort reigns, often filled with worn, paint-splattered clothes. However, I view my studio wardrobe as a deliberate choice, an opportunity to project my artistic identity.
For example, I wear UGG boots in the studio. Their comfort keeps me grounded, but choosing a luxury brand connects my personal style to the essence of my artwork. I recall the moment my gallerist visited and noticed my paint-splattered boots, now a canvas themselves. This led to an exciting collaboration: a limited edition of hand-painted UGGs, merging art and fashion.
I also chose a white apron over traditional dark colors. The contrast with my usual black attire not only serves practical purposes but also inspired a later venture—a line of aprons branded with my motto, "Fearless Artist."
Remember, artists at work attract attention, and your attire can shape your narrative. How do your choices reflect your identity? Your clothing is more than mere fabric; it’s an integral part of your story.
Embrace the opportunity to express yourself through what you wear. Let your choices embody the artist you aspire to be. Your attire can enhance your creative practice and redefine your artistic identity.

2. Client Meetings
In client meetings, the essentials are straightforward: be on time, be professional, and yes—wash your hair. These basics set the tone for how you are perceived. While the image of the unorthodox artist can be charming, it often reinforces the "starving artist" stereotype we strive to overcome.
Having worked in corporate environments, I understand the importance of professionalism. As artists, we must view ourselves as businesses. Consider your own experiences as a consumer: you expect reliability, quality, and a positive experience. The art world should reflect those same standards.
At its core, creating art is about producing a product. While the romanticism of artistic expression is alluring, we must acknowledge that we are selling our creations. To attract buyers, we need to embody professionalism in our attitude and appearance.
The concept of mirroring suggests that people trust those who resemble them. When meeting corporate clients or collaborators, I remind myself that I represent my brand. A polished appearance enhances credibility and fosters trust.
I’ve consistently set myself apart in collaborative projects by being punctual, responsive, and attentive to my clients—all while maintaining a professional demeanor. It’s not just about looking the part; it’s about embodying professionalism in every interaction.
Remember, you can dress professionally but still act unprofessionally. If you aren’t inclined to be the face of your brand, consider hiring or partnering with someone who can. Be honest about your strengths and limitations.
Ultimately, selling your art is your responsibility. Even in a gallery on Main Street in Park City, I feel the weight of that duty. Embrace it. Your professionalism can distinguish you in a competitive landscape and foster lasting client relationships. Let your attire and attitude reflect the artist you aspire to be, and watch how it transforms your business.

3. Gallery Openings
This is my favorite part! After the hard work of creating pieces that matter to you, an art show opening is a celebration—a joyful occasion surrounded by friends, family, and new faces. It’s the perfect opportunity to wear something special.
For these events, I encourage you to dress in a way that reflects your creativity and passion. Choose bold, unique outfits that showcase your artistic identity and invite conversation, making you memorable in a vibrant community of artists and art enthusiasts. Have fun with it!
Consider how your outfit will emphasize or distract from your work. For example, if my art features a neutral palette, wearing a bright red dress sends a strong message, while a black dress communicates something different. Explore the emotions evoked by different colors; in North America, black packaging is often perceived as luxurious, influencing customers' willingness to pay more. Use this insight to align your attire with the message of your art.
Embrace the chance to express yourself through your clothing. Let your outfit reflect your artistic spirit and elevate your presence in the art world. Remember, your attire is another canvas—one that should resonate with the passion and creativity you pour into your work!
