Well, I feel very confident when I am well dressed. I actually don't know how one becomes confident when he is well dressed, hair is nicely combed. Does this happen with you. Does this happen with every one or it is just my belief to gave a direct relation between dressing and confidence.

I guess your meaning of being well-dressed here is being dressed neatly, decently, and looking fashionable. Yeah, I definitely agree with you. For any different occasions, such as attending conferences, going to parties, etc. Everyone wants to leave a good impression on others and wins respect from them. I think it's absolutely helpful for making you feel more confident before others, and what's more important, it's also rewarding for establishing future friendship or partnership with them.

Well, just like you and many other individuals, I also feel confident whenever I dressed well. This is natural because as a social animal, we really have to look good and if we look good in our dresses then the feeling of confidence instantly takes place, especially when you saw right thru your very eyes how people admire your looks or when they voluntarily comment how good looking you are because you dressed well. Well, dressing well really makes a difference so we better take time to develop a habit of making this a regular habit of ours. Have a nice Sunday ahead!

Hi kartiknaiduck, Oh, yes I feel confident when I am well dressed. However, I know that clothes don't make the man or woman. Some people are "dressed to kill" and still don't have the confidence that they should have. Confidence comes from within you. It doesn't matter if you are wearing baggy clothes with holes in them, your confidence level can still be pretty high. When you believe in yourself, then others will see your confidents shinning through.

Hmmm.. Getting well-dressed is another way of showing the personality and character the person have. That is why people has so much confidence wearing dressed in different style. For example, there are goth people that wears goth dress reflects the personality and character that they have-- it reflects on what they believe. For them, they are well-dressed, but from other people that are not goth looks at them as nasty and not nice. Those goth people that wears goth dressed give them so much confidence because it reflects the personality and character people have. Getting well-dressed is very important because that is what we get from first impression up to the last.

Well, I think there is a direct relationship of being well dressed and having confidence. I have attended to some occasions where I need to be dressed well, and wearing such would not bring you out of place. You feel comfortable talking to people and interacting with them. But if you are not well dressed, then most likely you would just want to stay in the corner and be alone.

Actually it works the opposite for me most of the time. I feel much more comfortable and therefore confident when I am dressed casually. Give me a good pair of jeans and a sweatshirt and I can hang with the best of them. But if I am dressed up, I am out of my element and I want to hide in a corner. The only time being dressed up helps me in my confidence is in a professional type situation, like a job interview. But, in social situations it doesn't help me at all.

Yes definitely. Just look at those pop stars or whoever people attending functions or the star awards. Look how well-dressed they are and see the confidence they exude when they walk down the red carpet. When one is dressed well, people will fix their eyes on you, making you more confident. Dressing well is also another indication of your personality and character. It tells people what kind of person you are.

Yes, i feel confident when i'm well dressed. That confident feeling comes when i feel good about myself, knowing that i'm in a tip top condition, being flawless, and everybody is looking at me, saying nice things about me. I like being in the limelight, it's as though i have the aura in me. Besides that, being confident makes me feel sexy and in turns, makes me even more confident.

Hi Kartiknaiduk! No it's just not a beliefe! It really does make you confident! But we should also choose/wear well dress - dresses that are comfortable to wear to make us confident. Check your outfit first before going out too, so you'll not be bother in going to other areas in your place. have a nice day! ^_^

Yes, I think most of us feel better if we are dressed in a proper way for the situation we are in - one guide line could be that if people look more at out clothes than listen to what we have to say, then we should consider choosing different kind of clothes. To get respect from others, we need to show them respect by trying to look and behave well and not exaggerate in either direction.

I think i feel more confident about myself when i am well dressed. Sometimes we just need that little bit of pampering to boost our confidence. Wearing fine clothes and looking extra special can lift our spirits and make us feel better about our lives and those around us.

Yes when I am dressed well I feel really confident like I can do anything that I set my mind too and when I am not dressed well I feel like horrible and I feel that I can't do anything so that's why I have decided to start dressing nice like everyday so that I can always feel confident and so far it is working because having confidence is always good because it helps to build self esteem way up through the roof and we all need that.

Of course, I really feel so confident whenever I am dressed well. I don't really have a slender body because I am quite chubby so wearing clothes that will make me look slimmer has always been one of my struggles. My mother used to remind me to wear darker clothes so that it will make me look slimmer. I am quite a conservative person because I am not fond of wearing sleeveless tops and short skirts.
