Terpsichore – Muse of Dance

Terpsichore is the muse of dance, and the goddess of the Greek chorus. She is the mother of the sirens, and has the lyre as her symbol.

Terpsichore would be the girl who dedicates all of her free time to dance. She would attend every single party and club night, having the time of her life on the dance floor. She would also volunteer to choreograph all the musicals and dance showcases taking place on campus, absolutely killing it every time. 

If dance is your passion too and you want an easy way to change between classes and practice, try a transition outfit like the Terpsichore-inspired one above. Wear leggings, a graphic tee, sneakers, an oversized sweater, and a necklace (this one resembles the lyre shape). Once you’re done with classes you can take off the sweater and necklace and there you have it: an easy-peasy transition to activewear. Now go bust a move!

Melpomene – Muse of Tragedy

Melpomene is the Muse of Tragedy. She is often represented by artists as carrying a tragic mask, a blade, and wearing kothornos, boots typically worn by Athenian actors in ancient Greece.

Melpomene would definitely be a drama girl. She would major in Visual and Performing Arts and be part of her college’s drama club. She would also be fascinated by Greek tragedies (so meta). 

As a modern tribute to the chitons worn by ancient Greeks, pair a white flowy skirt and a white tank top. For your footwear to resemble the kothornos, wear laced sandals to get the ‘half-boot’ effect. Greek tragic actors would sometimes wear capes to play certain roles, so layer a kimono over your outfit. Accessorize with a pair of statement earrings and a phone case with theatrical masks.
