Hi everyone,

Do you follow fashion trends in Switzerland? Every country and every culture has its own dress code. As far as you are concerned, have you changed the way you dress?

Can one easily find fashion boutiques in Switzerland? Are clothes expensive there? Or cheap?

What do Swiss usually wear or like to wear the most?

Share your experience!

Hi Priscilla

I don't really follow fashion trends but i must admit, with an attempt to blend in you would somehow find yourself adapting to their clothing habits.

I definitely can say that I have changed the way i dress since i moved here. My mother-in-law have taught me the "onion principle" with regards to adjusting to an unpredictable weather, and it's quite a task to practice.

There is a variety of price points depending on what clothing/brand you prefer. The international brands tends to be more affordable than those of the Swiss made ones which can be a little pricey.

I noticed that Swiss people in general have a very comfortable way of dressing up which is understandable considering the unstable weather they have.
