Unpacking The Link Between Astrology And Fashion…
How Astrology Affects Our Personal Style...
While astrology and fashion are two very separate interests, they have been linked in various ways over the years.
At its core, astrology is a language that helps unpack our character, our nature and personality. For those of us that are believers, the stars and planets at the time of birth influence our preferences and proclivities, including how we choose to express ourselves aesthetically.
The key is being able to deep dive into the personal horoscope to interpret the position of the cosmos.
When Fashion And Astrology Are Perfectly Aligned…
Schiaparelli, 1938 Collection…
In the last hundred years, there have been many fashion designers fascinated with the constellations, and planetary cycles.
Both Christian Dior and Elsa Schiaparelli were known for their love of astrology.

Clothing and accessories commonly incorporate symbols, as well as the assigned crystals for the star signs. Meanwhile, every Lunar New Year sees leading brands cash in on the lucrative window in the shopping calendar.

How To Dress For Your Birth Chart, According To An Astrologer…
There is a nuance to dressing according to your personal horoscope that goes beyond the obvious.
While it’s true someone born under the sign of Leo might be drawn to bold and dramatic fashion choices, and someone born under the sign of Pisces might prefer flowing, ethereal styles, it’s not always a given.
You can consult an astrologer to better understand your placements, or book in for a Fashion Astrology Reading with me!
