In this episode of Dressing for Wellness, Taylor (Inherent Clothier CEO) speaks with Eduardo Xavier of European Custom Tailors. They discuss the importance of hats, how to cultivate your personal style, the importance of travel in understanding your style and communicating with other people, and more. Eduardo also shares his perspective on building your personal image, and how that has an inextricable relationship to your mental health.
3 Key Points
- Exploration, whether travel or just via Instagram, is crucial to developing your personal style.
- Learning to style the pieces you have is often more impactful and important than the quality of the items themselves.
- Developing your personal image is a way to develop greater self confidence.
Episode Highlights:
- The quality of a suit has less of an impact than overall styling does.
- Eduardo’s advice to someone looking to develop their personal menswear style is to explore Instagram, but understand your body and look for models with similar bodies to yours.
- Exploration is key to figuring out your style.
- Styling has to do with your overall image—as you learn about yourself and what you like and what image of yourself you want to show the world, the world starts to notice and perceives you differently, which reflects back to you whether that’s the image you want to have.
