  1. How do you express your fashion personality?

  2. Clothing choices • How many of you thought about what you were going to wear today before putting it on? • How much thought? Pick it out last night? A week ago? • People are stereotyped by the kinds of clothing they choose to wear each day. • Clothing affects your behavior, school performance, job outlook, and friendship possibilities. Do you agree? Give me an example.

  3. Fashion Personalities • As we begin to study our personal fashion, it is important to know the 6 fashion personalities. • CLASSIC 4. SPORTY/NATURAL • DELICATE 5. TOWN & COUNTY • DRAMATIC/TRENDY 6. ROMANTIC

  4. CLASSIC • Timeless fashions, always in style, always in good taste • Sophisticated and modest • Clothing articles found in this category include: • Blazers, vests, cardigans, straight skirts, pleated skirts, nautical styles, turtlenecks, button down shirts • Men’s suits, jackets with lapels • Classic shoes include penny loafers, pumps, or wingtips • Just about any fiber can lend itself to classical styles, argyle-patterns, cable knit sweaters, wool, linens.

  5. delicate • Soft, feminine, dainty • Modest, demure, a little girlish • Design details include small cap sleeves, tiny lace trims and ribbons, peter pan collars, small buttons & bows. • Ruffles are small and hemlines are modest (not too short/long). • Fabrics include cottons, cotton-polyester blends, gingham checked, pastels, small florals, dotted Swiss, seersuckers, pin stripes and eyelet. • In men’s fashion, delicate uses pastels, small stripes and dots.

  6. Dramatic/trendy • Flashy, attention grabbing, • Make a statement when you wear them • You stand out in a crowd and people stop to look at you • Several components make up this personality and some of them include: dramatic use of color (neons, shocking color contrast), dramatic use of texture (sequins, velvet, satin, snake skin, leather, furs, feathers, fringe), abstract styles (look more like a costume), bare skin (exteme minis, tube tops, bare backs, etc) • Accessories are over-sized, unusual, and flashy • Almost all designers include at least a few dramatic or trendy fashions into their lines to make a statement

  7. Sporty/natural • Comfortable and versatile; very popular among students • Sweats, workout clothes, stretch pants, tshirts, jerseys • Fabrics include cotton, polyester, fleece, or lycra-spandex • There are few design details. • Simple lines, elastic waistlines, pull over styles

  8. Town & country • Also popular with students because, while it is comfortable, it is tailored and contains more detail than the sporty and natural personality. • Tailored with natural, heavy fabrics, such as denim and twill. • Fabrics include denim, leather, corduroy, plaid, flannel, etc. • Accessories include cowboy boots along with any other simple style boot, braided belts, leather belts, silver or gold studs, cowboy hats, bolo ties, simple jewelry.

  9. romantic • One of the most exciting personalities even though it is the one worn the least. • Very dressy, too dressy for everyday wear. • Exaggerated, elegant, extremely formal • Details include large ruffles or rows and rows of larger ruffles, rows of covered buttons, string of pearls • Fabrics include lace, sating, silks, brocade, crepe • Accessories are soft, such as pearls , very conservative • Men’s romantic styles include tuxedos, black suits, ruffled front shirts • Romantic styles are soft, not provocative

  10. Which fashion personality do you have? • Think about your personality and how it affects your overall image. • What image do you want to project to your peers? Family? Teachers? Is it ever different? • Your image says a lot about who you are before you ever open your mouth. Remember you never get a second chance to make a 1st impression.

  11. activity • Write 3 words that describe your overall image based on what you believe your fashion personality is. • Style 3 fashion templates with outfits that describe each word. • For example: if I think “delicate” is the fashion personality I think most of my clothing fall under then a may choose feminine as one of my words. I will then design an entire ensemble based around the work “feminine”. Ex: dress, shirt, pants or skirt, at least 2 accessories, and shoes
