    the dressing some one puts on, does it determine or portrays the inner character of that individual?

    Well.

    I think that question is a bit too wide to be answered simply.

    Take for example…we have models who go practically naked for the camera and for people to ogle the clothes they’re wearing. Does that make them loose women?

    On the other hand, we have women who dress conservatives, but are looser than professional prostitutes. You can’t judge based on that.

    Ultimately…I judge you based on your ‘WHY’. Why do you wear what you wear?! It’s simple.
    If your motives are innocent…well.

    But IF THEY ARE not…well.

    Sometimes…we do the right things for the wrong reasons.

    Sometimes.
    Most times my dressing depends not just on the occassion but on my mood.

    I will speak the truth as usual.
    My dressing is determined by the cleanliness of my wardrobe. In most cases by my laziness to iron.

    Dressing is meant to ‘Portray’, not ‘Determine’…

    Sometimes dressing is used to create a first impression. And sometimes whne its not deliberate, it can show one’s nature and character. You’re a collection of habits and habits can affect how you dress at times…

    But I dont think its a 100% yardstick for determining one’s inner character.

    In FINE, ones inner character determines ones dressing.

    Yet, dress as you would be addressed!

    Not necessarily.Sometimes you dress for the occasion,other times your mood determines it and yet still your circumstances and pocket also play a part.

    I think the “determine” in the question should be done without because your character can only determine your dressing and not the other way round.
    Not always does dressing portray one’s character because of the different motives behind dressing.
    Dressing is determined by several factors like: occasion, mood, occupation, exposure, income…and many a times, character.
    So you could say, yes- dressing portrays one’s character but only to a certain extent; based on how frequently one dresses in a particular way and most importantly, just as was said @seun-odukoya, based on the underlying motive.
