Dress-up theme: “Embodied Resilience”

Let your outfit tell a story of how you rise and recover. Here are some ideas to spark your imagination:

“Rooted & Radiant”

  1. Attendees dress in earthy tones (browns, greens, golds) with flowers, leaves, or tree-motifs. Think of grounded beauty with sparkle.
  2. Symbol: Tree of Life / Roots & Growth.

“Warrior Goddesses/God”

  1. Flowing dresses, gold/silver arm cuffs, headbands, accessories—strong, feminine and fierce.
  2. Symbol: Embodied resilience, ancient strength.

“Rising from the Ashes” (Phoenix Theme)

  1. Reds, oranges, golds with feathers or fiery accents.
  2. Symbol: Rebirth, transformation, bouncing back.

“I Am Resilient” - Words as Power

  1. Invite women to dress in solid colors with their own empowering word pinned, printed, or painted on their clothing (e.g., “Bold,” “Soft,” “Still,” “Unbreakable”).
