Hope Coleman

Classification: Senior

Major: Apparel Design

Hometown: Pittsburg, Kansas

Hope Coleman is a creative design genius. You can often find her wearing clothing and accessories she made herself. Not much has to be said about how unique and one of a kind her style is. What she wears says enough. She is So Hot Right Now (and always). 

How would you describe your style in five words?

Modern-eclectic, free, random, neutral

When getting dressed in the morning, what does the process of selecting an outfit look like?

I pick out one piece and shape the outfit around it for the kind of look I’m wanting to wear.

Where are some of your favorite places to shop?

Goodwill, Buffalo Exchange, Flamingo Vintage, Jonnie + Ru, and Madewell (basically all thrift).

What role does fashion play in your life?

It’s the way I express myself. It’s my whole life, and I love it more than anything. I love being creative, and it’s a tangible expression of that.

Who do you look up to in terms of style?

Diane Keaton, Alexa Chung, and Wisdom Kaye.

What fashion advice would you like to leave with our readers?

Don’t feel like you can’t change your style. If you decide you don’t like the way you’re dressing, don’t stick with the discomfort if you’d rather try something else.
