Power dressing is more than just clothing—it's a statement of confidence, authority, and self-assurance. Throughout history, women have used fashion to challenge traditional gender norms and assert their presence in leadership roles. From the boardroom to the courtroom, women who embrace power dressing convey strength, competence, and control.

In this shoot, we chose to showcase power dressing in a courtroom setting, where women take charge as judges, defendants, and complainants. The sharp lines, structured silhouettes, and bold colors not only highlight the power of the women in these roles but also emphasize how clothing can be a tool for asserting authority and amplifying their voice.

FASHION COURT:

THE CASE OF THE OUTFIT REPEATER


On campus, at Marist University, fashion is taken very seriously.

The female judge (flawlessly dressed in power suiting) presides over a heated trial.

The female defense attorney argues that "minimalism is a lifestyle choice," but the evidence — three identical selfies — speaks for itself.

A bold accusation shakes the community: a male student has been charged with committing the ultimate style crime — outfit repeating at three different events without a single accessory change.

The female complainant (who wore three different outfits for one event) demands justice.
