There’s an old saying that claims you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover. While it’s true that
people shouldn’t, it’s also true that they do. So, how can you navigate the do’s and don’ts of
modern dressing? It isn’t usually difficult at work because you may have to wear a uniform—if you
are a nurse, a police officer, or even a store assistant. And even if you can choose what to wear,
you probably have clear dress codes from your employer. But what about in your social life? Can
you just wear what you want, wherever you go?
The answer to that is definitely “No, you can’t.” Let’s have a look at some of the reasons why.
Well, lounge wear seems a good place to start. These are the clothes many of us hang out in at
home in the evening and then sleep in. I put on PJs as soon as I get home, just to be comfy. And
that’s fine. What isn’t fine is nipping to the supermarket in your slippers and housecoat or doing
the school run in your nightwear. It doesn’t look good, even if it’s convenient.
There are more serious issues when it comes to things like social occasions that require some kind
of formal wear. Perhaps, your workplace has organized a night at the opera? Ripped jeans or a
short dress are not appropriate. You need to dress up a little—at the very least, smart casual
clothes and probably proper formal evening wear such as a cocktail dress or a tuxedo. Weddings
are another nightmare. It can be fun to wear something wild to a wedding, but you should ask
yourself if the happy couple will approve and remember that it’s not polite to draw people’s
attention away from the bride on her big day.
It may sound surprising, but it turns out that there are, in fact, very few occasions where you can
let your hair down when it comes to clothing. We have dress codes for many different occasions
and situations, and while it might be fun to break the fashion rules sometimes, it’s still worth
remembering that people do judge a book by its cover.
