Fashion has never been simply a matter of dressing up in the morning. Before we even start to speak and utter the first âhello,â our choice of  clothing is already doing the work for us. Our  clothes reflect all that we are, or all that we feel like at the moment. This uncanny ability to mirror our mood, our level of confidence, our odd quirks, and our place in the world tells us more about fashion than any other feature could. And most of the time, we donât even notice it.
Give it some thought for a momentâwhat makes you choose that particular sweater whenever youâre under pressure? What is it about one dress that makes you feel like you can dominate an entire boardroom while the other, which costs the same, leaves you feeling as though youâre dressed up as someone else entirely? The answer usually lies far beyond simple aesthetic preferences. Itâs all about your own unique identity.
Thatâs how style works its magic. Itâs very personal, but at the same time, itâs probably the most public way we have of expressing ourselves. You never have to verbally justify yourself because your clothing choices say everything for you. Now, hereâs a little exercise we could try outânothing too complicated, simply a self-analysis that often reveals surprising truths about us.
Imagine six black dresses lined up in front of you. Donât overthink the ârulesâ of fashion or whatâs currently trending on social media. Just go with your immediate, raw instinct. Which one do you grab? Which one can you actually see yourself living your life in? Your answer might reveal a lot more about your inner world than youâd think.
