If funerals have a proper all black
dress code, so does breaking-up. According to Vogue, after a break-up it's best
to dress simple and casual with a sliver of sex appeal. Pairing
comfort with low-key yet flattering pieces is the way to go – it’s important to
look chic without being desperate. As a sign of being thoughtful to the ex, try
not to look too good and memorable that he will be knocked over his head with
all the loveliness he’ll be missing out from now on. But let’s get serious now.
Sartorially speaking, a heartbreak can be the making of someone.
According to Coco Chanel, “If you are
sad, if you are heartbroken, make yourself up, dress up, add more lipstick and
attack.” This lovely woman who revolutionized the fashion industry knows a
thing or two about women and heartaches. I want to introduce fashion therapy to
all women out there sulking with their heartaches. Fashion therapy is a concept
created to express the fact that clothing can be related to well being if used
in an intelligent way.
However, it is arguable that
fashion therapy may still be regarded as an excuse for extravagance. Nonetheless, in the world of medicine, fashion therapy is making small strides in
healing individuals through its psychological effects. Clothes can be used to
express who we are and how we want to feel. Also, finding the right style
contributes to one’s well-being and that is always essential. Fashion can
become medicine, metaphorically speaking. It can be an
individual’s only way out of a very restricted, dull, restless or mediocre
life.
Getting back out there does not mean
you have to go through sartorial slip-ups just because a love has gone awry.
Your wardrobe isn’t always a priority when you are going through a break-up but
it should be to avoid having any regrets in the future. The first date or first
night out in town is a key moment for the recently single. In this stage, it is
tempting to dress sexy to attract attention and regain the confidence you lost,
however this is not always the best solution. You have to be careful because
you are still pretty new out of a long relationship and whether you realize it
or not, you are vulnerable to getting hurt.
For some, they become experimental
with fashion styles while others change their hair style or hair
color. These sartorial changes in yourself can be a symbolic gesture such as
the chopping of hair means lifting off the weight of the past. Or changing of
hair color to redefine yourself to a much confident person. The perpetual
transformative power of clothing symbolizes liberation and spiritual awareness
for most people. But truthfully, the best break-up style transcends the
superficial nature of separation. Breaking up in the most stylish and fabulous
manner is about keeping your emotions in check and remaining amicable during
the break-up. Keep in mind that everyone deserves to be stylishly happy, even
when single.
