The fashion world is huge, but it can really be simplified to twelve Style Archetypes. Which one you belong to depends on a few things – the importance of clothing in your life, your preference for different patterns and apparel, as well as the amount of effort you're willing to put into dressing up.

Once you know your archetype, you'll find that dressing up and looking good isn't hard at all. Less trial and error, more hitting the spot. You can even start exploring looks and brands within your archetype that you never thought you'd like. Take this test to find out which Style Archetype works best for you!
