For me, a person who dresses well will be Ms. Rekha from the Indian cinema. She was an iconic actress and is now very much well known for her Kanjivaram sarees. Any occasion, at any random time, you see her and you will be mesmerized because she will be in her utmost beautiful Kanjivaram saree draped wonderfully around her body with extensive jewellery. I mean, I have to give her for her taste in sarees. Her collection is exquisite and no one would ever be able to match the aura she brings to any occasion when she enters wearing a golden Kanjivaram saree. And her hair draped nicely into a bun with gajra, also called a garland, made of jasmine or mogra, wrapped around that bun perfectly, not an inch here and there.

Well, there are different professions where any sort of individual dresses perfectly. But there is one sort of profession that I would like to discuss about and that profession is Hospitality. As an Hospitality student or Hospitality worker, you are not only told to be dressed perfectly but also you have to look for other aspects. And a dressing sense do require a clean slated printed shirt, a pant and in terms of a woman, you do need saree or a traditional. In terms of tradition or if you are wearing a formal wear, you do need a proper coat along with some pants and oxford shoes. So this sort of profession not only fascinates among any individual but also creates a positive mindset when someone is looking up to them. And thus I believe that being a Hospitality person, the dress code is quite formal and also it really fondles up the beauty and brings out the best version of himself or herself.

I have a friend and a colleague who works beside me as a photographer. He just knows what to wear at what occasion. Initially when the meetings were conducted in our offices or the inclined meetings were conducted, he would just dress up so nicely that everyone would say that are you the CEO, are you the owner of the company in a very funny and joyful way. But the dressing sense that he has, being a photographer knows what color goes on his skin or what color goes on his skin tone. So he generally wears such kind of colors which just brings glow to his face and overall body structure. While he is skinny, he just tries to do the layering of the clothes.
