Identity and the way you dress

  The link between the way you dress and your Identity


 

The way you dress does influence what others think about you but your personality, attitude, culture, and age all play a role in influencing others’ opinions about you. Though all these factors have a role in what others think about you the way you dress is an important factor. Today we are going to explore how you dress yourself influences other's opinions about you and the way they perceive you. 

 

The way you dress tells others about your taste 

 

Clothes have become an integral part of our identity. The way you dress tell others about your taste and likes. If you like dressing up in jeans and tops it shows your taste in jeans. If you dress up in different styles of clothes it shows others what your taste in clothes is like, this challenges others to form opinions about you based on the clothes you wear and your taste. Furthermore, your dressing style also helps you form connections with the people around you who have the same sense of style and taste.

 

The way you dress yourself tells others about your personality

 

The way you dress tells others innumerable aspects about your personality. The dress you wear tells others about your interests likes, and dislikes. If you like wearing dark clothes others form opinions that there is some something you are hiding from the world and shows that you like dark colours. If you wear light clothes others form the opinion that you are a very optimistic person and always see the good in things, furthermore, this shows that you like light colours. Clothes define you more than words could. People who are more casual tend to wear casual clothing this emphasizes the idea that there are very casual. Your personality defines the way you dress this leads to others integrating their opinions on what dress you wear or how you dress.  For example, people wearing bold clothes and bright makeup are perceived to be extroverts by other people whereas a person wearing a simple shirt and jeans is perceived to be an introvert.

 

The way you dress tells others about your beliefs and culture

 

The way you dress tell affects what others think about you. The clothes you wear give hints about your values and beliefs. Clothes help others form opinions about your background, beliefs, and cultural values. The way you dress exudes your cultural values and beliefs, for example, if you wear a lehenga it shows your cultural beliefs to others. Moreover, certain cultural groups have an affiliation to dress in a particular style which shows your culture and beliefs.

 

 

The way you dress tell other's a lot about the person’s personality, age, race, mood, taste, social status, background etc. For example, if you wear worn-out clothing people assume that you are poor, though sometimes the way you dress does not define the way you are. The way you dress tell others a lot about you but sometimes the way you dress is misinterpreted and others form wrong opinions about you. I personally believe that the way you dress does tell others about you but only to a certain extent. My personal belief is that the way you communicate, and the way you interact with others around you has much more influence on what others think about you.

                               Globalization and the rapid growth of global culture   Globalization has made the world a more interconnected and interdependent place of culture, population, and economies. Economic globalization has rapidly spread over the past years. With the rapid spread of globalization, culture has been changed and global culture has developed. Due to increasing globalization and the emergence of a global culture a lot of contrasting ideas and perspectives on what this means for us have developed.

In my opinion, though global culture will create peace in terms of reduced conflict ca...
