Episode notes
The connection between clothing and culture is undeniable. Even if you don't put much thought into it, your clothes still send a message. People will judge you based on your appearance, so it's worth considering the signals you're projecting. Even those who claim to dress for comfort still make deliberate choices to convey ideas about themselves, such as gender, class, or cultural identity. Our clothing choices reflect our subconscious desire to express ourselves and fit into certain social norms. So, while some may argue that they don't think about clothing, their decisions still make a statement.
