We’ve all seen those celebrity Twitter storms. Someone finds out that their favorite celebrity has a new book or movie coming out, and they immediately start going through their housekeeping closet, trying to find something to wear to sign the book or see the movie. Unfortunately, this often means that they end up using clothing with which they are either not comfortable or which does not fit them very well.
While this might seem like a minor issue to you or me, it’s an issue that celebrities have to deal with constantly. Whether it’s a book tour or just the occasional movie appearance, celebrities often have a difficult time choosing appropriate clothes to wear while representing their brands. As someone who has to deal with this issue on a daily basis, I wanted to give some tips on how to dress appropriately when you’ve been invited to sign a celebrity’s book or see a movie based on their work.
Understand The Reason Behind The Outfit Choices
When Robert Pattison invites you to sign his book or see one of his movies, you should not feel obliged to wear something fitting for a star. Instead, you should feel free to choose whatever you want. The key is to make sure that you understand the reason behind the choices the celebrity has made.
For example, if you’ve been asked to sign Pattison’s book because he thinks you’ll fit into his world, then you should make sure that your outfit represents this. If you’re not sure what to wear, then ask someone who knows more about fashion than you do. A good rule of thumb is to look at what celebrities are doing, not what you think they might want you to wear. Most importantly, remember that you are there because the celebrity wants to thank you for something. They’ve probably seen your work and thought it was cute or funny or helpful to them. Whatever it may be that brought you there, make sure that you show your appreciation in some way that will make them proud to have you there.
Dress Appropriately For The Occasion
In some cases, you might be asked to sign a book during a party. In these situations, it’s best to choose an outfit that is a bit more low-key. You wouldn’t want to wear something too flashy or revealing, especially if you’re there to represent a professional brand. Remember that this is mainly a party for the celebrity, so make sure that your appearance is in keeping with the occasion. In other cases, you might be asked to see a movie that’s not on the big screen. In these situations, you can choose something more flashy and distracting. Just make sure that you are comfortable with what you’re wearing.
Know How To Dress Appropriately For The Audience
As I mentioned above, you don’t always need to dress in accordance with the occasion. Sometimes, you’re asked to see a movie because it’s the director’s favorite, or because they want to show you something new. In these situations, you can choose something more revealing or distracting. Just make sure that you are comfortable with what you’re wearing.
Choose Clothes That Are Functional
There are many clothes in his closet that don’t necessarily have to do with his work, but rather represent an element of his personality. Sometimes, he likes to wear colorful, patterned prints, and this can be a great way to express himself. As individuals who work with celebrities on a daily basis, we know that this can be a major issue. Often, celebrities don’t have the time to go through their closet and choose only the few outfits that they think are appropriate for an occasion. This can lead to them wearing the same outfit several times, which is not professional and can cause confusion.
By having a clear understanding of why they’re inviting you and what they want you to wear, you can take the time to find the most suitable attire for the occasion. This will make it much easier for them when it comes time for them to choose outfits for their various appearances. Not only is it easier for them to remember what they’ve worn previously, but you’ll also be able to assist them in picking out new outfits if they’ve forgotten what something looks like. Think of what your grandparents would say about you if they saw you wearing a bright yellow dress with blue accents? They might think that you’ve lost your mind. But if they saw you as I do, they might think that you’re the funniest girl in the world.
Choose The Right Outfit First
One of the most important things is to make sure that you choose an appropriate outfit for the occasion. You wouldn’t want to wear something too revealing or distracting because it might end up being inappropriate. If it’s a party and you’re not sure what to wear, then choose an outfit that is a bit more low-key. You wouldn’t want to wear something too flashy or revealing, especially if you’re there to represent a serious brand. Also, make sure that your clothes are comfortable and that they feel good on you. If they don’t feel good, then it’s best to go shopping for a better-fitting outfit.
Pick A Bling-Free Zone
No, I’m not talking about the hotel room where the celebrity will be staying. I’m talking about the area directly in front of the hotel’s entrance and driveway. You know, the part that will be showing up in the paparazzi’s shots if they are driving by and snap a picture of the car parked outside? If you’re walking into the hotel, then it’s best to leave your bling alone.
Usually, this is where we find ourselves shivering in winter because it’s freezing and yet it’s bright outside. This is also where we desperately need sunglasses because it’s often sunny and yet it’s dark outside. So if you want to avoid any problems, then choose an outfit that is on the simpler side. No jewelry, light colors, and simple styles are always a good choice. If they’re asking you to see a movie because it’s a masterpiece they’re particularly proud of, then go for it! But if you’re not sure what to wear, then choose something simple and classic. You’ll be able to wear this outfit several times, and the paparazzi will stop hounding you once they realize you’re not wearing any jewelry.
Look For Similar Clothes
Once you’ve decided what you’ll wear, it’s time to find similar clothes to wear on similar occasions. If you plan on seeing a movie that’s not on the big screen, then you can choose something more flashy and distracting. But if you’re going to a party, then it’s best to choose an outfit that’s a bit more on the simple side and that you feel good in.
Accessorize!
Finally, don’t forget to accessorize! Wearing a single piece of jewel other than your engagement ring might be acceptable in some situations, but in general, it’s best to wear a combination of earrings, nose rings, and necklace. When choosing your accessories, make sure that they’re all in keeping with the outfit and they complete the look. If you’re going to a fancy party, then wear something simple yet stylish. If it’s a more low-key affair, then choose something a bit more distracting. For instance, if you’re going to see a prestigious film at the Marche du Film, then wear something traditional yet sleek to mirror the French cinema in the ‘20s and ‘30s. Or, if it’s a ball, then choose a dress that will make you look like a radiant fairy.
Choose Something That Means Something
Ultimately, what you’re trying to do is make sure that you’re choosing an outfit that has meaning. If they’ve invited you to see one of their movies because they saw something great in your work or in your persona, then make sure that your outfit reflects this. It might be great to wear a beautifully embellished dress that fits perfectly because it’s tailor-made for you. However, if this is a party for the director, then it might be best to go for a more playful and vibrant look. After all, this is what they love about your work!
When it comes to choosing an outfit, there are many variables that you have to take into consideration. Sometimes, it can be difficult to find the right attire for the occasion. But by following these tips, you’ll be able to make the right choice each time and be able to show your appreciation for the celebrity who has invited you.
