Clothing choices help to define unique characteristics about yourself. Whether it’s colourful shoes, a graphic scarf, unusual watches, bright socks, it puts an aura out there about you as a person, before they meet you. It might characterize you as fun, artistic and confident.
It tells me you like yourself, have taken the time to put together an outfit(which in turn says something about your work as detail oriented) and that you have a sense of style. Clean, comfortable and well fitting goes without saying.
As a language expert, colourful and unique clothing would define you in my mind as someone who embraces life from all cultures, is accepting of these different cultures and it’s people, likes to have fun and enjoys his work.
I do not like clothes. I think it is deeply unfair and unreasonable that people would tell me off for simply not wearing any. My usual compromise is t-shirt and trousers in most situations. I might wear a kilt for a wedding or national constitution day, but usually I am much more comfortable naked, so I kinda have to engage in media to try to change popular opinion.
Your comment has given me a lot to think about to be frank. It triggers a part of me that I think I haven't explored before (I suspect my post did the same for you, but I could be wrong). Thank you for sharing your comment.
I have never learned to associate clothes or appearances with personality, beyond distrusting people who have the resources and means to be fashionable and also choose to do so. I think avoiding people who do not have the means to look fashionable is reprehensible, because if it is by choice it's theirs to make and if it is not I would be a horrible person if I were to take their appearance as an indication when it does not correlate with the person. The point about not caring about one's own appearance and therefore pick strange combinations also seems like a logical flaw to me. Ignoring appearance, price, durability, hygiene, practicality and comfort are still perfectly valid factors. I am afraid I have spent a bit too much time and resources pondering and discussing this point for your post to give me much of interest, but it did take me 20 years to learn that some people actually enjoy wearing clothes at all and do not just do it because society and other people force them to. That's when I first discovered social spaces where it is possible to be naked.
