Fashion is a very important element in Italian culture. Italians pay a lot of attention to a person's clothing. If you are going to travel to Italy and look like an Italian, here are some tips on how to dress in Italy.

Steps

  1. 1 Understand that not all Italians dress alike or expect you to dress a certain way. This is simply a guide presenting the foundational principles of Italian dressing style.
  2. 2 Go for natural tones, blacks and whites, over bold, flashy colors. Opt for subtle shades of clothing if you want to look like an Italian. In summer, pastel shades such as beige, cream, gray and white are preferred. Although in winter you can also dress in the same color.
  3. 3 If you are a woman, your makeup should be natural. Many Italians prefer naturalness and naturalness with regard to hairstyles, manicure, pedicure and eyebrows.
  4. 4 If you don't know what to wear, go for a classic style of dress. Give preference to high-quality fabrics, good companies that sew clothes. A tie under a short sleeve shirt, a light summer shirt, and jeans are not exactly Italian choices. Plus, a shirt that is not ironed will not match a suit. Jeans are, oddly enough, acceptable in a formal situation, as they never go out of style. If you wear a matching jacket, you will look great.
  5. 5 You should not wear strapless tops to church or any other sacred place. By doing this you are showing your disrespect. Men should wear long sleeved shirts when attending special or formal events in Italy.
  6. 6 Note that shorts are not the norm for an evening outing. Neither men nor women wear short shorts, nor do they wear socks with shorts.
  7. 7 Don't wear baggy trousers, shirts, and T-shirts in Italy, especially those with large and bright prints.
  8. 8 Match your shoes carefully to your clothes. You should not wear socks if you are wearing sandals or open-toed shoes day or night. Flip flops should not be worn unless you are at the beach. Don't wear white socks unless you are wearing sneakers or exercising. Socks should be worn if you are wearing shoes and should not be too conspicuous.
  9. 9 Keep in mind that shirts with no chest pockets or brightly colored buttons indicate that you are sophisticated.
  10. 10 You should not carry a belt wallet, as this indicates that you are a tourist.
