De dentro para fora e de fora para dentro: a influência da vestimenta na psicologia
DOI:
https://doi.org/10.5433/1679-0383.2026.v47.54641Palavras-chave:
Psicologia da moda, Identidade, Cores, Autopercepção, SubjetividadeResumo
O presente ensaio teórico investiga as relações entre moda, cor e psicologia na constituição da identidade e na regulação emocional. A partir de uma revisão bibliográfica integrativa, discute-se como o vestir se configura como forma de linguagem simbólica, mediadora entre o eu e o mundo. São abordadas contribuições da psicologia social, analítica e cognitiva, bem como perspectivas da neuropsicologia da moda. As evidências indicam que as escolhas vestimentares, associadas à percepção das cores, influenciam o bem-estar, a autoestima e a cognição social, revelando a potência psíquica e simbólica do ato de vestir.
