For Europeans wearing jeans is the bottom level of formality outside a gym, it is not “well-dressed” it is dressed enough to leave home. For Americans the gym clothes are good enough to go to college in them. Spaniards in the US narrate this without exception. I know one girl who explained in full detail how people thought she went all-dressed up to class for not wearing what she considered “gym clothes”, “home clothes” and even “pyjamas”. The other alternative is the guy with the brownish trousers and the blandest-coloured shirt, with comfy white socks almist up to the knees. These are the more formally dressed version, yet entirely lacking in any sense of aesthetics.
It looks good when it is aesthetic, in fact, preferibly with the brand showing modestly. You may have absolutely horribly combined clothes that Americans think are good, because they all have some brand on top. And this isn’t just my perception, Spaniards studying in the US are the back up source of this perception I already had. I don’t know why, but they don’t care about colours and patterns or they care in a misplaced way from our perspective. For instance, some guy gets a red shirt, or a shirt with a movie drawing, and he is super happy with his shirt. So he wears his red shirt to places it doesn’t fit, with pants it doesn’t go well, and fixated with the shirt for days to no end. The sense of comfort coming from the single most tokenish feature in one piece of clothing is intriguing to me. Spaniards are not the most worried about looks as Europeans go, but do have a sense of it that Americans just don’t.
Europeans generally care about what colours suit them, what colours look well with each other, even what colours go with which season’s looks. Not just girls, guys too. For instance, I buy lighter clothes in the summer, because I tan. And I tend to buy lighter colours in general because I am dark-haired. Or in winter I buy jumpers over sweaters, unless the sweater is of a colour that looks better than the jumper to me. I will pick a shirt for its colour always over its brand, I have preferred brands, but only because I happen to like more of their stuff. Not because I like the brand itself. Americans just buy the Abercrombie hoodie for winter and the Hollister t-shirt for summer, with some gym shorts or wide comfy long pants, and the fashionable shoes of the year. Regardless of any of the above, like a walking commercial.
