THRIVE: Affirmation Through Clothing & Style

Description: Clothing can be a powerful tool for self-expression and gender affirmation. This interactive workshop explores how fashion and personal style can help individuals feel more comfortable, confident, and authentic in their identities. Participants will learn practical tips for finding clothing that aligns with their gender expression, body type, and comfort level—whether through layering, tailoring, color choice, or accessories. We’ll also discuss the emotional impact of clothing, budgeting options, and creative ways to experiment with style safely and joyfully. This session celebrates self-expression and encourages participants to use fashion as a form of empowerment and affirmation.
