“Every item you are wearing is a word that says something about you. Together, your outfit makes up a statement that tells others how you see yourself and what you want them to think about you. You create your own “wardrobe language” from your life experiences and by those that influence you”, says Sarah Whittaker.
Research shows that 65% of communication is non-verbal (Knapp 1972) and based not on what you say but in a large part on how you look. The way you communicate yourself conveys positive or negative impressions and can determine whether you are ‘seen’ as suited for a job, as partner potential or as a match for a sorority.
There are five tools that help Sarah Whittaker interpret you by your
outfit:
1) Clothing type
2) Form and texture
3) Finishing and detailing
4) Colour psychology
5) Accessories and add-on’s
“Without realizing, people can inadvertently dress what they least want you to know about them or what they most want to hide. What you want to disguise, you only emphasize! This is why reinventing yourself can often lead to a new image…but the same signals”, says Whittaker.
