The Ten Largest, No. 7, Adulthood by Hilma af Klint | Style Imitating Art

New art to inspire your style…

About Style Imitating Art

Style Imitating Art is hosted by Salazar of 14 Shades of Grey, Shelbee of Shelbee on the Edge, and Marsha of Marsha in the Middle. Style Imitating Art challenges us to draw style inspiration from pieces of art. Every other Monday, one of the hosts, acting as presenter, selects an inspiration image that they will each post on their blogs. The following Monday, each host shares her art inspired outfit. Participants are invited to submit their art inspired outfits to the presenter by 10:00 p.m. EST on the Tuesday following the hosts’ art inspired outfit posts. The following day, Wednesday, the presenter will share all of the submissions on her blog.

You don’t have to be a blogger to join either! In fact, you don’t even have to join but you can still use the art to inspire an outfit just for the sake of trying something different. If you want to share your inspired outfit, we invite you do so on Instagram or any other social media platform that you prefer. Just be sure to tag Salazar, Shelbee, or Marsha or use #TeamLOTSStyle and #StyleImitatingArt so the hosts know you have joined. Go have some fun in your closets and join the SIA challenge next week!

This Week’s Presenter

Marsha chose this week’s artwork. Without knowing of this artist or even how she landed on her website, Marsha picked this artist’s work because it is different from anything she has previously chosen.  She was going to choose a piece that had a primarily pink color palette since October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. But when she spotted this piece, the colors were so fall like that it made sense for this challenge.

The Artwork

The Ten Largest, No. 7, Adulthood by Hilma af Klint

I think I have an idea of what I am going to wear for this one. I just love the colors and the abstract design. I have never heard of this artist before either and I am really excited to learn more about her and her incredible artwork.

If you are feeling creative and want to style your own outfit inspired by this painting to be featured in Marsha’s review post on Wednesday, October 8, 2025, please be sure to submit your photos to her at mlrbanks57@gmail.com by 10:00 p.m. EST on Tuesday, October 7, 2025. 

Happy styling! 

Keeping it on the edge, 

Shelbee
