Clothing Emotions. These are the four main inner drives that lead people to have closet trauma:
1.OVERACHIEVER - This is a woman who wants to look perfect, regardless of cost and anything else in her life. "Even if she just bought a great Calvin Klein suit or an awesome Versace dress, she'll probably only wear it once, and never wear it again. She is in this mode of having to look perfect all the time." The underlying emotion is: "I need to be perfect & look that way."
2.ACCUMULATOR - Despite having 10 closets stuffed full of clothes, she'll impulse shop for that certain something, and still only wear 20% of the stuff she owns - wearing the same things repeatedly. The emotion: "I do not know who I am" or "I am not feeling whole.
3.MODERATE - Tends to be where most people fall into. Will furiously impulse shop if an event comes up where she has to look right. The emotion: "I need to fit in" or "I don't want to make other people feel uncomfortable."
4.DEPRIVER - Reflects the emotional pattern of someone who has either minimal interest in clothing or image, or has deprived herself of the right to look & feel good. The emotion: "I do not feel deserving" or "I feel guilty." |
