Style isn’t just about what you wear, it’s also about how you move in the world. Professional dancers have a quality of movement that simply enhances their presence. I met Jermel Johnson and Yuka Iseda from the Pennsylvania Ballet by chance at the glacier. In town as guest artists for the recent performance of “The Nutcracker,” they were out enjoying Juneau’s natural beauty. Jermel’s brimmed hat and contagious smile caught my eye and Yuka’s stage makeup and faux fur collared coat kept it. Side by side, as they moved, they were irresistible.
• Juneau Style is a weekly fashion segment capturing how Juneauites dress, whether on the streets downtown, on the fishing docks or on the trails. We believe the Juneau look — XtraTufs, Carhartts, rain gear, all of it! — is something to be celebrated.
