What Class Are Your Clothes?

WHAT CLASS ARE YOUR CLOTHES?

What you wear says a lot about your upbringing and socio-economic background.
Below are some general observations. These are true for most western countries but, most particularly, Great Britain.

WOMEN
  • Matching clothes and accessories involving at least one bright color, i.e., red: LOWER CLASS
  • Matching clothes and accessories with a more muted ‘accent’ color, i.e., cream; LOWER-MIDDLE
  • Two or three matched accessories: MIDDLE-MIDDLE
  • Understated outfit with no heavy-handed matching or accessorizing: UPPER-MIDDLE or UPPER CLASS
  • Exposed upper arms (middle aged and over): LOWER CLASS
  • Short skirts, regardless of whether you have good legs: LOWER-WORKING-CLASS and NOUVEAU RICHE (working class origin)
  • Short skirts with good legs: YOUTHFUL UPPER-MIDDLE & UPPER CLASSESS (who regard thick ankles not only as unattractive but also working class)
  • Longer skirts with bad legs: UPPER CLASS – because those with thick legs usually take care to hide them


MEN
  • Large, bulky, ostentatious metal watches, especially gold ones: LOWER CLASS
  • Discreet watches, usually with a leather straps: UPPER-MIDDLE & ABOVE
  • Signet ring worn on little finger of left hand: UPPER-MIDDLE & ABOVE
  • Any other rings apart from a plain wedding band: MIDDLE-MIDDLE & BELOW
  • Ties in garish colors and loud patterns (especially jokey ones): LOWER CLASS
  • Shirts unbuttoned to display an expanse of chest: The more buttons undone, the LOWER THE CLASS
  • Sleeves rolled to just above elbow: LOWER CLASS
  • Sleeves rolled to just below elbow: UPPER CLASS
  • Loose-fitting red trousers with brown shoes and pale shirts: UPPER CLASS
  • Tight shiny red trousers with black shoes: LOWER CLASS
  • Beige, string-colored, tweed or Barbour jacket: UPPER CLASS
  • Woolen scarf: MIDDLE-MIDDLE & UPPER CLASS
