Clothing, Colours and Emotions

[eye_of_the_storm]

Thoughts?

Any change in expression with change of colours +/ patterns worn?

Traditional clothing seems to be more vibrant in colour and pattern

Red definitely makes one look and feel more aggressive. Yang. But I don't think patterns have much affect on an I dividual, beside any personal or cultural attachment one may have towards a pattern (for example, people feel rich wearin an Yves Saint Laurent polo shirt or a Louis Vuitton brown bag)

 

I also think wearing tee shirts with graphics or phrases is sub par to wearing according to your body - if your shadow looks good chances are you've dressed according to your body. Me personally, I wear loose fitting cotton stuff, usually greys, blacks, navy blues, whites and if I ever wear patterns it's plaid. In terms of emotions, I don't think it affects me on that plane. I think I dress according to a character I want to express, so the emotions of this character (or avatar, or archetype) are derivative from the clothes I've picked to manifest this character.

I see.

So the colours one wears can be an expression of internal state?

I mean patterns too rather than brands

For myself I would have a certain preference for certain patterns or no patterns... depending on feeling/

I dress in 'fall' colors and try to make everything go with everything else.
