Tomorrow is a very important meeting. I must look smart and create a good first impression. So the big question is: What to wear? Saree? Nope, that is too traditional for business meeting. Hmm..Salmar Kameez? But which color? Dark wouldn’t be suitable. May be some pastel color? What about pink? No no….not good. Yellow? Or how about white? That will look elegant. It is a business meeting that will be followed by lunch. So it is better to wear trousers and nice Allen-Solly work-wear.
I am sure some of you must have faced this situation of ‘What to wear for a particular occasion’. Is dressing appropriately very important in everybody’s profession or so to say in life?
There is an unsaid dressing code for each occasion such as marriage, birthday parties, pub parties, business meetings, blind dates, engagement ceremonies and so on….
Think of this. How much time do we waste in thinking what to wear for a particular occasion? Honestly I think I waste a lot of time on what to wear and even after that end up wearing something stupid. Do you think the same? Thank God! There are people like me too. :-)
Dressing sense is very important in our society. In fact one can judge a person by his/her dressing sense. [ Watch new ad of Dhoni where he says' Aajkal kapde dhang ke nahi to ijjat bhi nahi'

One of my friend rejected a suitable, healthy, wealthy and smart guy’s proposal. Reason: He was wearing an un-ironed red shirt with white trousers and white sports shoes. Hmmm…imagine it and you may feel, “Oh my God! People can dress like that!”
In India, most of the politicians are very conscious of their appearance and what they wear. You will mostly find them in white kurtas or white shirts.
We have a few handsome, new generation politicians like Sachin Pilot,Jyotiraditya Scindia, and Rahul Gandhi. But I have never seen any of them in a pair of jeans and a nice t-shirt. They will look cool! Same goes for young women politicians like Supriya Sule and Priyanka Gandhi. They are always in sarees and that too strictly cotton. There is an exception though and that is Priya Dutt. I saw her a few days back on Karan Johar’s chat show. She was looking stunning in simple pyjamas and a fashionable kurta. This may be due to her Bollywood connection. She is daughter of legendary actors late Nargis and Sunil Dutt. Sanjay Dutt is super star who is lovingly known as Munnabhai by his fans.
Let's not talk about glamor world i.e the film industry. Here labels and fashion rules. Well it has to be that way as they get paid to look good and to wear the brand names!
"How on earth does Aishwarya manage to do it year after year on red carpet at Cannes? The black gown was passable this time, but Ash obviously forgot to get it pressed before hand. Oh dear...unsightly creases at the world's glam photo op? “
Any search engine will give you ample of results which talks about Aishwarya’s dress. Some comments are
"Disappointed with her dress. She just doesn’t get it, when it comes to dressing at the Cannes”,
"Looks like nobody presented her an iron at her wedding”
"This time, it was not the wrong color or cut, but the failure of her steam iron, that set the style-meter plummeting on day 1, May 15.”
"It had been a different material, perhaps it would not have wrinkled so badly”
"Ever since I saw her picture the creases on the dress were bothering me.”
Man! People have so much time to observe!! That is what makes dressing sense become so important for some people.
US presidential elections are left untouched by this fight over dressing sense. Hillary had to categorically state that she would be wearing pants in the White House if she is elected in November. She believes that wearing pants would make her feel more in control.
But fashion diva Donatella Versace doesn’t agree. She said, "Hillary doesn't need to wear trousers to show she's strong.How on earth trousers relate to power!” Versace wants Hillary Clinton to dump her blobby trousers.The action doesn’t stop here. This statement has given many sites a subject to poll "Should Hillary Clinton ditch the trouser suits?"
Well lets go back to the basics. Think of the time when the first man and woman – Adam and Eve, were created by God. That time they were hardly worried about their dressing sense. Fig leaves were the dressing code. Wish that would have been the case today too. :-) Then nobody would have to face the situation of "What to wear for a particular occasion".
I don’t have great dressing sense and that’s why this blog. Is it worth investing (or may say wasting) time on what to wear? I am not sure of the answer. Are you? Drop your comments.
