In this essay the author takes a humorous look at how she, a contemporary female analyst, decides what to wear to work each day. How can she balance professionalism with personal expression? Does it matter what patients she will be seeing? Freed from the bland dress code of an earlier psychoanalysis, she weighs the pros and cons of what might get stirred up in herself and her patients as she opens the closet door.
