What to wear on a first date so it won’t be your last?

How and in what we are dressed, sometimes says more about us than words, gestures and actions. How to dress for the first date so that after it an invitation to the next follows? Casual clothing brand O’STIN asked this question and launched a spring project “What to wear on a first date so that it doesn’t become the last one?” to create the perfect look for a meeting in a restaurant, park or cinema. Our editor Anna Muradova also received an invitation to take part in it.

Psychologists have repeatedly conducted research on the topic of clothing, which is a win-win for a first date. For example, researchers at the University of Rochester in the US asked a group of XNUMX men to talk to the same girl in a red and green shirt. According to the results of the survey, it turned out that much more intimate and personal topics were raised in a conversation with a girl in a red shirt. The university scientists then asked the men to enter the room, take a chair and sit next to the girl. The men who entered the room with the girl in the red dress placed the chair much closer to her than those who entered the room with the girl in the blue dress. This proves that the red color attracts men, making its owner sexually and romantically attractive. Therefore, a red dress is the most obvious choice for a date.

Another study was conducted by a large textile company. Absolutely all survey participants confirmed that a woman in black looks confident, sexy and smart. A classic little black dress or black blazer will not only make you look thinner, but also give you all these qualities in the eyes of the opposite sex. White and green shades evoked a feeling of confidence and calmness among survey participants, and blue almost the same emotions as black.

But the men surveyed considered pink to be frivolous. Is this the merit of the cult film «Legally Blonde»? Therefore, it is better to wear your favorite pink outfit when the partner is firmly convinced that he has found the perfect woman for himself. But the most unpopular shades were orange and brown. Can’t live without these two colors? Try replacing orange with peach, and brown with soft sand.

A man is not a fashion critic and does not sit in the front row at shows in Paris. Therefore, it is likely that he will not appreciate the set compiled according to the latest trends. Turn to timeless classics — feminine dresses that emphasize the beauty of the figure, trousers, delicate blouses and heels that will not only visually lengthen your legs, but also make your posture more aristocratic.

But don’t drastically change your style for the sake of one date. The main thing is that you feel comfortable and confident. The test on the O’STIN website will help you decide: by marking the looks that you think are suitable for a first date, you can compare your choice with the opinion experts, as well as learn their recommendations and advice not only on how to choose the right style, but also to have a first date at the highest level!

And here is the choice made by our editor Anna Muradova, one of the project experts.
