Introduction
Choosing the right fashion style can be tricky, especially if you’re not sure where to start. But don’t worry – our quiz will help you figure out which fashion style is right for you. Just answer a few questions about your personal style and we’ll give you some recommendations. Let’s get started!
What’s Your Body Type?
Ectomorph, Endomorph, or Mesomorph? Most of us are a combination of two body types. No matter your body type, we all have unique body proportions. The key is to find nightclub, casual daywear, or formal wear styles that fit *your* proportions. Use this quick reference guide to determine which fashion styles work best for you.
Ectomorph
– You are long and lean, with little body fat and muscle.
– You find it hard to gain weight.
– You needn’t worry about hiding any extra pounds; in fact, you may wish you could add a few pounds of muscle!
– Your ideal wardrobe consists of classic styles in lightweight fabrics that de-emphasize your waistline and hips; tailored clothing with nipped-in waists; vertical lines and prints; short jackets; dresses with Empire waists.
Endomorph
– You are stocky and rounded, with more fat and less muscle than other body types.
– You tend to gain weight easily.
– To dress your best, choose styles that minimize your fullness: structured clothing with darts or shoulder pads; conservative hemlines (just above the knee is best); darker colors; strong vertical lines in print patterns or stripes; fabrics with a firm hand (texture). – Jackets should end at the hipbone or lower to minimize the fullness around your waistline. – Wide leg trousers balance out full hips and thighs.
Mesomorph
– You are naturally muscular and well-proportioned. With relatively little effort, you can maintain a healthy weight and build muscle tone.
– Your ideal styles emphasize your natural assets: classic tailored clothing; nipped in waists on skirts and pants; strong horizontal lines at the neckline or hipbone level to give the appearance of a smaller waistline.
– Your silhouette looks great in close fitting fabrics such as wool crepe, wool jersey, cashmere.
– Stay away from baggy clothing which will make you look larger than you are.- When choosing prints go for small designs instead of large ones.
– Jackets should hit at the hipbone or below – never above the waistline.
– Wearing V-neck tops will also help minimize a fuller midsection by drawing attention upward.
– A-line skirts help camouflage full hips and thighs – just make sure they fall no more than 2” above the knee.
– Darker colors are more slimming than light ones.- Textured fabrics such as boucle add visual interest without adding bulk.
What’s Your Style Personality?
There are four fashion style personalities: classic, creative, dramatic, and natural. If you plan on entering the fashion industry or just want to develop your own style, it’s important that you understand these different personalities. Each one has its own strengths and weaknesses.
Classic:
This style is all about clean lines and simple designs. The focus is on classic pieces that will never go out of style. If you have a classic style, you tend to gravitate towards timeless apparel and accessories. You like to keep things clean and polished.
Pros: You always look put together and effortless. Your wardrobe is versatile and can be mixed and matched easily.
Cons: You may be perceived as boring or unimaginative. Your style can be a bit too safe for some people’s taste.
Creative:
This fashion personality is all about self-expression and originality. If you have a creative style, you’re probably not afraid to experiment with new looks and silhouettes. You like to stand out from the crowd and express your unique personality through your clothes.
Pros: You’re always ahead of the trends. People admire your bold sense of style.
Cons: Your style can be difficult to pull off if you don’t have the confidence to carry it off. You may also come across as trying too hard.
What’s Your Color Personality?
Your color personality can be a great guide when choosing the right colors for your wardrobe. Do you gravitate towards bold, bright colors or more subdued hues?
There are four color personalities:
1. Bold and Bright:
You love to make a statement and you’re not afraid of color. You’re drawn to attention-getting shades like hot pink, neon yellow, and electric blue. When it comes to fashion, you like to stand out from the crowd.
2. Subdued and Neutral:
You prefer muted colors and classic styles. You’re drawn to timeless pieces in shades of black, white, grey, and navy blue. When it comes to fashion, you prefer a more subdued look.
3. Romantic and feminine:
You love pretty, girly pieces in delicate shades of pink, lavender, and peach. When it comes to fashion, you prefer a softer, more romantic look.
4. Outdoorsy and natural:
You feel most comfortable in nature-inspired shades of green, brown, beige, and orange. When it comes to fashion, you prefer a relaxed, casual look.
What’s Your Fashion History?
How you dress says a lot about who you are and where you come from. Whether you favor classic looks, manage to always be on trend, or prefer to strike out on your own with your own unique style, your fashion sense is deeply rooted in your history. Let’s take a walk through time and explore the origins of some of today’s most popular fashion styles.
Classic:
You favor timeless looks that have stood the test of time. You’re probably drawn to designer labels and well-made clothing that will last for years. Your style is probably pretty understated – think simple, elegant lines rather than flashy details or outrageous colors. You might not be the first to jump on every trend, but when you find something you like, you stick with it.
Vintage:
You love the looks of bygone eras and often incorporate vintage pieces into your wardrobe. You might prefer clothing with a nostalgic feel, or even stick to true vintage pieces from specific eras. You’re not afraid to mix and match different styles, and often put your own spin on classic looks.
Boho:
Boho style is all about being unique – so it’s no surprise that people with this fashion sense are often drawn to vintage and antique pieces. If you dress boho, you’re probably comfortable in layers of different textures and colors. You might also favor handcrafted jewelry and accessories, and natural fibers like cotton and linen.
On Trend:
You’re always on top of the latest trends – as soon as something new comes out, you’re eager to try it out! Whether it’s the latest fashion blogger collaboration or the newest “It” bag, you want to be one of the first to get your hands on it. Your style is constantly evolving as you experiment with new looks – but that doesn’t mean you don’t have a few stand-by favorites that you always go back to.
Conclusion
Your fashion style is a reflection of your personality and how you want the world to see you. It’s not about following trends or blindly copying what everyone else is wearing. It’s about being true to yourself and expressing your own unique sense of style.
