DOPAMINE DRESSING

Whataboutyouroutfitmakesyou happy?

Gemma, 27

The colours and comfort of the dungarees. They were a present from my mum and I feel truly myself when I wear them.

Mark, 49

The soft textures, bright colours and Tom Baker's 1970s Doctor Who Scarf

80 % of my wardrobe is pink, so I don't really need to pick outfits because they all match!

Didyoupickyourownoutfittoday?

Yes I did, and I got this bag from that stall [points at a nearby stall] for £3 and I got my squishmallow from another one because I traded an éclair for it.

The yellow in my jumper, it expresses myhappiness?

Well yeah, yellow expresses my excitement and happiness.

Jessica(onconfidenceanddesign):I enjoy dressing up, it makes me happy, and it is also a confidence booster. My jacket makes me feel the happiest today because I made it myself.

Tong(oncreativity):I like getting up in the morning and creating an outfit. We live seven days a week and I don’t want to dress the same every day, I want to show my creativity.

Angelo(onfeeling,masculinityxfemininity): I feel like the outfit really changes your mood and I choose my outfit depending on my mood, how I feel that day… I see that men are using more (hand)bags these days and I love that.

Andrew(onbeingbold):I haven’t worn red shoes in, like, ten years. So, I’m bringing it back full circle.
