23.  Here are just a few examples of some
styles of dress that are popular today
and the kinds of information they can
convey about those who wear them.

24. Clothes and personality
interpretation
 The Conventional Dresser :dresses for
her or his environment rather than
from a sense of personal style.
 wears a simple, traditionally styled
suit /dress, conservative tie and
sensible shoes.
 tend to be ‘conventional’ people –
drab and sometimes boring, and
lacking in confidence, they tend to be
introverts who like to blend in with the
crowd.

26. The Sloppy Dresser :
 generally look as if they slept in
the clothes they are wearing.
 Their wrinkled, soiled,
mismatched outfits, are usually
topped off by unwashed,
uncombed hair, unshaven faces
and – on women – heavy, sloppily
applied makeup.
 tend to view themselves as free-
thinkers who reject conventional
norms.
 the look also screams of a poor
self-image, immaturity, lack of
motivation, and an ‘I don’t give a
damn’ attitude.

28. The Casual Chic Dresser
 At first easily confused for a
‘conventional’ sort
 ‘Casual chic’ personality is
someone who tends to dress
appropriately for every occasion
and always looks stylish and well-
put together.
 a ‘chic’ dresser adds small but
important personal touches to his
or her wardrobe – an elegant piece
of jewelry, a silk scarf or designer
tie – that speak volumes about his
desire to fit in without disappearing
into the crowd.
 The Casual Chic person is
confident, successful, and
perceived as attractive by others.

30. The Designer Dresser
 everything from his
undergarments to his
overcoat must sport an
easily recognized label from
a well-known clothing
designer.
 her hair is done only by the
most expensive, high-end
salon
 While this style usually
gives one an air of affluence
and success, it is all too
often also a sign of a person
who is insecure, uncertain
about his personal identity,
shallow and overly
materialistic.

32. The ‘Goth Dresser’
 Sported mostly by teens
and ‘twenty-something’s’,
the look is characterized by
black clothing, dark
makeup and jewelry that
looks more threatening than
fun or inviting.
 often have a number of
body piercings and tattoos
which they display by
wearing as little clothing as
possible.
 their personalities tend to be
angry, immature, thrill-
seeking, hostile towards
authority and depressed.

34. The Athletic Dresser
 most people who dress in
‘athletic attire’ like running suits,
sweats and so-called ‘work-out
wear’ in public are not athletes,
but simply people who want to
be perceived as such.
 wear them in order to identify
themselves with a sub-culture
that they find appealing but
which they cannot join due to
physical constraints or a simple
lack of time or motivation.
 These people tend to be
sedentary, insecure and envious
of those with the ambition and
drive to achieve athleticism in
the real world

35.  These descriptions of clothes and
personality are stereotypical
representations of many different
types of dressers.
 most of us wear a mixture of one or
more of these style types on a regular
basis and our personalities are a mix
of those described as well.
