As in-person classes return, there is no more hiding behind a screen. 

For some, it means having to simply look presentable – for others, it’s inspiration to experiment and show off what’s been collecting dust in the closet. 

After over a year of online classes, many students take the return to campus as an opportunity to up their style game.
