🔮 Symbolic Approach
Fig leaves, kimono, toga, uniform: clothing is a social skin, a rank, grief (white or black depending on the shores). Dreaming of clothes is a pile of personas. Too many clothes, too many roles. Naked under a coat, the true and the false. A dead person's clothes, transmission. An empty wardrobe, no more mask — terror or grace.
🛋️ Psychoanalysis (Freud & Jung)
Identity, class, gender, body shame. Outfit too small / big: role. Dirty: secret. Changing ten times: anxiety of being seen. Freud: dressing up desire. You: which costume is choking you?
🧠 Neuroscience
Real fabric, temperature, laundry, shopping. Somatosensory. A label, a button: the brain gets dressed.
💡 Practical Advice
Choose a true outfit (role, garment, sentence) and hold it for the day. Give away or throw out a dead skin. You don't have to carry the whole wardrobe.
