You can tell a person's personality just by looking at how they are dressed
One of the best ways to tell a person's style is to look at the way they are dressed. The best thing about fashion indicators is that you can analyze their behavior style even before the conversation begins, so you can start it on the right foot!
RELATORS
Indirect and Open
________________________________________
Nothing too loud for them
Steady Relaters dislike calling attention to themselves, so they tend to wear subdued colors and conservatively cut clothing, favoring conventional styles that do not stand out too much.
SOCIALIZERS
Direct and Open
________________________________________
They like glitz and pizzazz!
The way Interacting Socializers dress often relates to their need for recognition. Since they like others to notice them, they may dress in the latest style. Look at me Socializers like bright colors and unusual clothes that prompt others to compliment them. Many Interacting Socializers even prefer negative comments to none at all. "Are you dressed for Halloween today, Rhonda?" At least she is getting the attention she craves.
THINKERS
Indirect and Guarded
________________________________________
Noticeably understated
Cautious Thinkers tend to wear more conservative clothes, but with unique, often perfectly matched accessories. While the Socializer may draw attention to himself with glitz and glitter, Thinkers usually prefer a more understated, faultlessly groomed look with nary a hair out of place. However, their taste may differ from the people around them. They like expressions of individuality and creativity, but within guidelines.
DIRECTORS
Direct and Guarded
________________________________________
Power symbols
Dominant Directors tend to dress comfortably and typically pay less attention to their appearance than the other types. They may program themselves primarily for work results, so wardrobe tends to play a secondary role in most fields of work. They may be candidates for a timesaving personal shopper or tailor who can choose or measure outfits for them in the privacy of their own offices. Dominant Directors gravitate toward authority symbols, so they may wear navy blue or charcoal gray power suits.
