This event helps undergraduate and graduate women prepare for their summer internships and full-time start dates. While there are menswear stores in Ithaca, there are no comparable shopping options for women. Additionally, through our research, we have learned that women of color express the most significant difficulties with shopping for professional clothing; many sizing studies did not include women of color when standard sizes were being developed. We will offer fit guidance and tailoring on site to remedy the difficulties that many groups have in finding clothes that fit. We will also ensure that there is an inclusive range of sizes available for all participants.
