Any affectation whatsoever in dress implies, in my mind, a flaw in the understanding.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't dress for effect, and I think that it never works out when someone does.
A dress makes no sense unless it inspires men to take it off of you.
It is a common observation, that the more solicitous any people are about dress, the more effeminate they are.
I think there's a point at which you know how you dress isn't going to affect how much you do in life.
Dress is at all times a frivolous distinction, and excessive solicitude about it often destroys its own aim.
I believe someone should be able to dress according to the mood they're in. It shouldn't be forced and you shouldn't have to follow a trend.
In general, fashion is decorative, it's protective, it acknowledges that the world does involve conflict, and you might be attacked by assumptions, presumptions, and attitudes.
I believe that if you think about what style means, you won't become a fashion victim.
I find that even the simplest of dresses, if it has the correct seaming and the correct fabric, whatever shape or size you are, it can change the way you hold yourself.
Surely it is one of the simplest laws of taste in dress, that it shall not attract undue attention from the wearer to the worn.
