The way we dress says a lot about us because when we go to any event,our clothes tell others about our whole personality as they express that we understand the mood and respect the occasion. When we wear an outfit that matches the theme and colour palette of the event, people think that we are stylish and know well how to dress properly according to the mood of the event.
Wearing an outfit that fits the theme of your event makes you a part of the event's story and you look connected to the event. Dressing rightly for the event means that you show your respect for the occasion.
Understanding the theme of the event
The fact is that every event has a theme due to which it feels special. The event could be formal, casual, festive or even fun. You can easily choose a matching outfit with the main theme of the event when you know the main idea behind the celebration.
Wearing a different outfit from the theme of an event makes you feel alien among people because when you dress too casually for a formal party or too bright for a quiet gathering, you look odd that’s why taking a few minutes to grasp the theme of the event you are attending is essential.
Importance of Colour Palette
Colour palette means the main colours chosen for the event, and it could be soft pastels, bold shades, or a mix of elegant tones.These sorts of colours are often seen in the decorations, flowers, and lights of the event and when you choose a colour among them,you look more connected to the environment of the event without feeling like a stranger.
Wearing outfits in similar shades makes you look well-connected.
Choosing the right fabrics
The fabric you choose to wear is the most important decision you take because fabric can change how your outfit feels and looks. For outdoor events, light fabrics like cotton, chiffon or linen are perfect because these fabrics have the ability to keep you cool and comfortable.
Fabrics like silk,velvet or satin are suitable for evening or formal events because they give a classy touch and suit the mood of a grand event.
For weddings and cultural events
Weddings are full of joy and excitement in Pakistan and every wedding has its own colour palette.When you wear a colour from the wedding theme, you feel coordinated and respectful.
One thing you should always keep in mind is that you should avoid wearing the same colour as the bride's main outfit unless it's part of the theme.You can add a traditional style by wearing jewellery or a shawl.
For casual or fun gatherings
Casual gatherings give you the chance to be relaxed and creative because in this type of event you can play with colours, prints and fun accessories as long as they suit the theme of the event.
Brighter shades for Eid, Diwali or New Year and for beach parties,turquoise colours can be instrumental, but you should always keep in mind that your outfit should not clash with the overall decor.
For corporate or formal events
Neat and clean looks are needed for formal events that’s why wearing neutral colours like navy, grey, black or beige works well.Try to avoid flashy prints or bright colours in professional settings.
Your goal for this type of event should be to look sophisticated and in line with the event's tone and don't forget that a balanced and clean look leaves an everlasting impression.
Always try to add your personal style
You shouldn't forget that you can still match the theme by showing your own style and it can be done by adding one small detail that makes your outfit truly yours.
Fashion is all about expressing yourself, but you should always respect your own self.So don’t forget yourself and be creative because in this way,you can be your own stylist.
When you wear an outfit that matches the theme and colour palette of the event, everything looks balanced and chic. Matching your outfit to the theme of the occasion shows your respect, care and love for the event you attend.
