The seminar then transitioned to the exploration of fashion as a means of self-expression, emphasizing the profound impact of clothing on confidence and self-esteem. Fashion experts guided the participants to embrace their unique style and harness the transformative power of clothing imagery. By encouraging women to explore their individuality and embrace their authentic selves, HERSTORY rekindled a new awareness of confidence among women.
