Maritza didn’t need a jury consultant to tell her how to dress any more than Sara did. They were both women who’d come up in male-dominated fields and had both figured out that, for better or worse, their appearance mattered more to a jury than what came out of their mouths. Hair pulled back to show they were no-nonsense. Light make-up to show they were still making an effort. Glasses on to show intelligence. Modest skirt and matching blazer to show they were still feminine. Heels no more than two inches high to show they weren’t trying too hard. Show, show, show.
