The appropriateness of striped clothing also depends on the specific design and the overall dress code of the place or event.

6. Pants with stripes
You can style black and white striped pants with a white (or black) T-shirt, a denim jacket, and open-toe gladiator sandals. You may add a hat, statement bracelets, stackable rings, or any other personalized piece of jewelry to the outfit for more fun.
7. Mix with solid colors
• If you wear a striped top or bottom, pair it with solid-colored pieces to balance the look. This helps prevent an overwhelming or busy appearance.
8. Accessorize
• If you're unsure about an all-over striped look, incorporate stripes through accessories. Striped scarves, sunglasses, or bags can add a pop of pattern without being too much.
9. Experiments with stripe sizes
If you're feeling bold, experiment with mixing different sizes of stripes. For example, pair a wide-striped top with narrow-striped bottoms or vice versa.
Never wear a striped dress
• For Job Interviews (Depending on the Industry)
While a striped dress can be stylish, it's essential to consider the dress code of the industry you are interviewing for. In conservative or formal industries, you might want to opt for more traditional attire.
Remember - the fashion is subjective, and these are just guidelines. Feel free to experiment with different combinations until you find a style that suits you and makes you feel comfortable and confident.
