THE
EFFICACY OF YOUR DRESS SENSE AND APPEARANCES
Dressing has
always been an integral part of culture and society in every part of the world.
Dresses and appearances have to an extent being a means of identifying and
recognizing different professions, tribe, and association in relation to their
respective countries or race.
Whether you like
it or not, the cloth you wear at every point in time tells something about you.
It will be right to agree with the saying that opines that, “the way you are dressed,
is the way you will be addressed”. By this statement, it is to follow that one
should always appear in such ways that represents the expectation of people, in
terms of the norms and values of the society, profession, occupation, event
etc.
What do people get to know about you from your dress?
As earlier
discussed, there are many things that people can deduce or infer from the kind
of clothes we wear. Some of these deductions will be elucidated in seriatim:
Neatness and effort:
From the look of the clothes, you put on people tend to have
reservations and conclusions about how neat you are or how well you take care
of your appearance. It is important for you to know about the advantage and
disadvantage of being neat.
Looking good is a characteristic of good opportunities,
and of course for you to look good you must be at least neat to a reasonable
extent. It also propels the judgment of people concerning how conscious you are
about your look, and how much you put in to making yourself better or worse.
Field of work or profession and how good you are at
what you do: usually, some specific professions or occasions have their own way
of dressing, which serves as an indicator to identifying what they do. Artists,
doctors, lawyers, engineers, accountants etc. all have their way of dressing
that suits the job they do, and also assists them in actualizing their dreams
in light of the profession.
The words your appearance
speak about you
If you were walking on the road, and you come across a
huge person, wearing an armless shirt and a ripped jean, you obviously will not
be thinking that such person is heading to an office or some official
engagement. Why? Because what his appearance speaks is not in line with some
official setting.
Let us say you cross his path and he says “get out of
my way”, you would not be surprised and will not hesitate to leave is way.
However, appearances are not sufficient to generalize
to 100% the personality of a person, but it is what speaks about you before you
introduce yourself. So, ensure to look who you really are, in other not to
confuse people about your personality.
