My Fashion Identity: Mood Board Project

Today, you’ll create your own fashion mood board to show off your unique style, inspirations, and personality. This is your chance to express who you are through colors, images, and fashion ideas!

Step 1: Explore Your Style (10–15 minutes)

Take a few minutes to think and talk about your fashion identity. Answer these questions:

✨ What are your favorite colors, patterns, and textures in fashion?
✨ Who or what inspires your style? (celebrities, music, culture, history, social media, etc.)
✨ How do you show your personality through clothing and accessories?

Step 2: Create Your Mood Board (20–30 minutes)

You’ll make a digital fashion mood board using Canva (or another app). This board will include the colors, clothes, and inspirations that define your fashion identity.

What to Include:

• Pictures of clothing, shoes, and accessories you love.

• Color palettes, textures (denim, lace, leather, etc.), or patterns that inspire you.

• Words, quotes, or phrases that describe your fashion vibe.
