Outfit can't represent whole story

It says not to judge a book by its cover, and I also think it is ideal not to judge anyone by their looks. Unfortunately, most of the people around us judge people by their appearance. I think that it is not good to judge people by appearance, but I also can’t deny the fact that first impression matters a lot, and in first impressions, aside from behavior, we focus on people’s outfits, as outfits represent people’s personalities. So, how much does an outfit represent a person’s personality, or is an outfit capable enough to tell the whole story of any incident?

When it comes to personality, I don’t think it is capable of representing personality. Our outfits can represent our clothing preferences mostly. At most, they can represent whether we love simplicity or want to be highlighted, but still, that is not accurate. My own personality is enough to make me understand it. If anyone sees me, it is not so easy for them to judge me. My outfits are always simple, but my thoughts are not so simple, and I don’t want people to judge me easily. Again, there are a few times (rare cases) when I intentionally wear a gorgeous outfit. I just do it because I want to show people not to judge my thoughts as well as my preferences. So, outfits can’t judge a person’s personality.

Now let’s discuss whether they can represent a whole story or incidents. To be honest, it is something that can’t be answered directly. Suppose I am wearing a normal outfit; what can it represent? I don’t think there is anything it can represent. It is just an outfit that tells no story. Let’s think about a different example. Suppose we can see a soldier’s outfit, and there is mud, sweat, and blood on the same outfit. Can it represent anything? I guess it has something to tell. Let me imagine the story behind it.

The outfit may represent the responsibility of a soldier. The sweat and the mud represent the hard work and the effort a soldier makes for us, and the blood on the outfit as well as the uniform may represent the determination to protect the country and being ready to sacrifice for the country, even if it costs blood as well as the life of the person. So, in that case, an outfit can represent a story, but just by seeing the outfit, I can only try to imagine the situation. There is no way to understand the whole story just by the outfit.

If we have a good power of understanding, we may predict the story a little bit, but there is no way to understand the whole story.
