Basic etiquette of clothing collocation
It is not enough to give the most complete meaning to dress etiquette just by proposing a pattern of styles and colors, skirts and shirts for everyone to choose from and asking people to try their best to cater to this pattern. A person's choice and wearing of shoes, socks, hats, mirrors, etc. We also need to pay full attention to them, because they and the shape of clothing constitute the whole connotation of clothing etiquette in a broad sense.
As the saying goes, "There are no shoes under your feet." Explain the important position of shoes in the overall dress, shoes can not only reflect the overall beauty of clothing, but also increase the beauty of the human body itself. Leather shoes can be regarded as a collection of these two functions, which can be described as the "king" of shoes. Therefore, leather shoes are the most commonly worn in ceremonial occasions. On formal occasions, black leather shoes are the most authentic and can be matched with clothes of any color; Of course, beige and brown suits with dark brown leather shoes will be very harmonious, and ladies' leather shoes with various colors with dresses and cheongsam with similar colors will also look elegant and moving, but people with short legs should not wear leather shoes with strong color contrast with the bottoms, because the overall line will be interrupted at the upper edge of the shoes, and the lower limbs will appear shorter. On formal or semi-formal occasions, men generally wear black flat shoes without patterns, while women generally wear black high heels. Open-toed leather sandals are absolutely forbidden to be worn in ceremonial occasions, such as travel shoes, cloth shoes and leisure.
Shoes, all kinds of fashion shoes and formal clothes also don't match. No matter what style and color of leather shoes, it is very important to keep the upper clean on ceremonial occasions.
The wearing of socks is also learned. Don't wear shoes barefoot on formal occasions. In formal or semi-formal occasions, men should wear plain medium stockings to avoid exposing skin or thick leg hair when sitting down and talking. The color of socks should be monochrome and dark, with stripes and checkered patterns, while the original conspicuous patterns can also be used, but the tone is darker than that of suits, which can play a transitional role between suits and shoes. Women wear flesh-colored stockings with long skirts and cheongsam. A faint flesh color can make the skin shine, making it look delicate and delicate; Dark flesh color can give people a feeling of being slender and fit. The length of stockings must be higher than the lower edge of the skirt, and a lot of space should be left, otherwise one leg will be exposed when walking, which is extremely indecent. It is extremely inappropriate to wear socks with skirts on ceremonial occasions.
Although hats are not generally needed like shoes and socks, they are gradually being valued by people now. As a matter of fact, etiquette hats and wearing methods have long been seen in books, and many people have practiced them. British and French men's and women's "hats" and berets are two typical examples that can often be seen. The combination of French top hat and western-style long skirt can produce a romantic and elegant demeanor; The collocation of French bonnet and cheongsam makes people feel neither fish nor fowl, which is very strange. It shows that wearing a hat is closely related to dressing. Second, the color of the hat should be considered in combination with the skin color. Whiter people choose more. Dark-skinned people should not wear dark hats. People with yellowish skin should wear dark red and brown hats, which can set off some healthy colors. Wearing white, green and light blue will aggravate the morbid feeling. Third, the choice of hat style should not only consider Chinese or western style, but also adapt to people's face and body shape. A long face is not suitable for wearing a high hat, and a round face is more pleasing to the eye. Short people wearing slightly convex hats will look tall, while short people wearing big hats will have a funny feeling of "little mushrooms". Fourth, changes in hat wearing methods will also have different effects. Wearing it properly will make people's faces look full and solemn; The oblique lines produced by the slightly skewed hat will make the face slightly thin, but charming and lively. In terms of etiquette, the most important thing is to remember that men are not allowed to wear hats indoors, no matter what the reason; Women can wear hats and other items as part of their clothes and are allowed to wear them indoors.
Use sunglasses more carefully. Sunglasses, also known as sunglasses, were originally invented to protect the eyes from snow and sunlight. However, with the enhancement of people's aesthetic consciousness, this leading role is gradually replaced by the function of decoration. Indeed, sunglasses can hide others' ignorance, beautify the facial features and improve the overall appearance. People's eyes have always been called the windows of the soul: whether the eyes are dignified, beautiful and energetic almost determines a person's appearance and temperament; Any defect in the eyes, even a small defect, will have an impact on people's overall feeling. And sunglasses can help this and reflect people's skin color. After wearing sunglasses, people's eyes are hidden behind dark lenses, which objectively casts a mysterious color, thus adding a special style to people. Although the texture, style, color and shape of sunglasses are different, and different skin colors and faces are matched with sunglasses, this boundary is not obvious. People with small faces are not necessarily unsuitable.
People with big sunglasses and sharp faces don't have to wear square sunglasses. People with square faces will become more angular and energetic when they wear a pair of square sunglasses, while large oval sunglasses will add a charming temperament to slim women's petite faces. But generally speaking, the more beautiful and white people are, the more exquisite and high-grade sunglasses should be chosen to set off. The most fundamental requirement for wearing sunglasses in etiquette norms is that you can't wear sunglasses when attending indoor etiquette activities, otherwise it is absolutely rude. If you really need to wear sunglasses for eye diseases, explain and apologize to the host or guest.
