2. DISCOVER YOUR PERSONAL DRESS SIGNATURE • (Mainly A’s) • SPORTY/NATURAL – You love clothes that have texture, • but are informal and offer you a blended look. You are rarely • happy to be dressed up. You love jeans and T-shirts. You • look your best in casual, relaxed clothing in colours close to • nature – blues, browns and greens. Your hair is worn casually • rather than styled, you can wear a beard and moustache well. • Your business suit should be a fuller cut, with a relaxed • shoulder. Medium colours in a subtle check, tweed or other • pattern work well. Fabrics are heavyish with some texture but • always matt e.g. flannel corduroy. Monochromatic dressing • is ideal for you – using colours from the same family. Best tie • patterns are plaids, checks or wide stripes in muted colours. • For casual wear you prefer natural fabrics e.g. linen or cotton • and you are happiest in the casual look. If you wear any • jewellery it is likely to be a heavy duty watch. • (Mainly B’s) • CLASSIC – Everything about you is sophisticated and • moderate. Simplicity in line, colour and detail suits you best. • You’re traditional and conservative in style and do not look • good in faddish or ultra modern clothing. Clothing in fine • fabric, beautifully tailored is more your style. You look best • with a short conservative hairstyle. You wear two piece suits • most days. Your suit should have a relaxed, unstructured • shoulder with a trim waist. Subdued pinstripe, chalk stripe or • a small check are the best patterns. You look your best in • understated pastel or white shirts. Your ties although • conservative need not be dull, small patterned ties being best. • Thin stripes and club ties are your favourite. Silk, thin wools • or linens are good tie fabrics for you. Your casual clothes are • crisp and clean lined. You may not be a jeans man preferring • wool or cotton trousers with a collared shirt rather than a • T-shirt. Jewellery is tasteful, refined and minimal.

3. DISCOVER YOUR PERSONAL DRESS SIGNATURE • (Mainly C’s) • ROMANTIC – You are a lover not a fighter, very sensual, • very social. You have expensive taste and enjoy the theatrical. • You are a ‘people’ person and love being in the lime light. • You are influenced by the current fashion and are very aware • of grooming and looking your best. You enjoy soft fabrics and • luxurious colours. You choose clothes to show off your body • and face. Your business suit should have padded shoulders and • some waist narrowing. A smooth, slightly curved silhouette • is best for you. You love rich rather than dark colours, in fine • wools and cashmeres. Solid coloured suits or a very soft stripe • or woven in design serve you best. Shiny or matt ties in a well • blended design are good for you. Your casual wear is elegant • and trendy, the look is sophisticated and expensive. Your watch • is simple, slim and elegant. • (Mainly D’s) • DRAMATIC – Everything about your appearance makes a • statement, your clothes are the latest fashion but not faddish. • Your looks call for you to dress with authority, sophistication • with a hint of formality. You like wearing contrasts, bold or • dark clothing with white, for example. Your hair may be on • the longish side or exceptionally short. For business you look • your best in a boldly structured suit. You look your best in dark, • solid suits with a crisp white or light shirt. Pinstripe suits look • good on you. You like crisp, stiff fabrics. Your ties make a • strong statement either in colour, pattern or texture. Your casual • wear is fashionable and you are always dressed for the occasion • whether it be horse riding or tennis. Ordinary jeans are too • average for you, yours will be designer, extra baggy or skin-tight. • Your watch should be large rather than slim-line. Cuff-links • are a good accessory on you.
