Dressing the Dramatic Male

Dramatic Male Clothing Personality Style

General description

You won’t be accused of being shrinking violet. Your presence will be visible and you won’t be overlooked in the crowd. As long as it makes a definite statement you will wear it. Anyone can be dramatic by simply using the strongest colours in their palette in the highest contrast afforded them.

Challenges – having to blend in, wearing low contrast

Perceived Personality Style –  Full of life, strong individual, desires attention, needs to be wary of intimidating

Hair – Your style is short and sharp. You won’t have a hair out of place. You will spend the time to ensure your image is flawless.

Dramatic pieces

At Work – Your suits will be firm fitting and sharp. You will have the latest accessories and the latest of everything

At Play – You are a designer’s dream. Casually you won’t be seen dead in the off the rack pieces that everyone is wearing. Your weekend wear will be designer inspired, and again it will be sharp fitting.

Dramatic Colours Black, white, red, cobalt blue and yellow. Strong geometric designs more so than patterns. Plains and stripes are preferred.

Fabrics – Simple design and plain fabrics, crisp and sharp finishes. Super fine merino wools and crisp cotton shirtings are favoured. Leather rather than suede, vinyl for the less, well off dramatic. The dramatic will even put up with linen in summer mind you his won’t be crushed. If you can afford Saville Row fabrics and tailoring you will.

Dramatic fit – The ‘dramatic fit’ has belted in waists, stand up collars, wide spread collars, high shine shoes, tight trousers and body hugging shirts. Anything over-scale is exactly what the dramatic is looking for.

Footwear – High shine leather and sharp pointed toes. You will love the look of Loakes or the luxury of Church’s shoes.

Accessories – These men are most likely to have their ears pierced as well as other bodily parts. They will wear big watches, ornate cufflinks and anything bright and shiny that they can find. Rolex have the cache that you are after. Never settle for a folex (a fake rolex) the difference can be told.

Business Accessories

Their briefcase, whist not large will be very smooth; their pen is likely to be a Mont Blanc again avoid getting a copy. Many other brands have a smart look without an exorbitant price tag.
