When you think of dressing bold, what do you think of? Colors, patterns, layers? Well, if any of those come to mind, then you’re imagining maximalism style. Maximalism, as described by Keren Richter, is “the art of more-is-more; layered patterning, highly saturated colors, ample accessories and art, and a real sense of playfulness and bold gesture.” It’s all about making a statement and expressing who you are through your clothes.
