11 questions to pinpoint your personal style
By Florenne Earle Ledger published 19/01/2024
Defining your personal style can be difficult. We're sharing 11 questions that helped us decipher what we truly enjoy wearing.
- Look at your current favourite items, what do they have in common? What do you like about them?
- Think about clothes you dislike. Why don’t you like them?
- Map the evolution of your style. Is there anything that stands out as something you're always drawn to?
- If your favourite jacket suddenly went out of style, would you still wear it? How dependent are you on trends when thinking about what you like to wear?
- What do you usually look for when buying something new? Colour? Pattern? Texture? Cut?
- Which is most important to you and why?
- What are your favourite colours, textures and cuts to wear? Why?
- Describe how different fabrics make you feel - either tell a friend or jot it down on paper.
- Where do you get your inspiration from? Do you have a positive relationship with this source? E.g does it make you feel inspired or inadequate? Where else could you find inspiration?
- Can you describe your style in three words?
- How would you want to hear your style be described by someone else?
