On the typical day-to-day flow you WILL see some stripes, some patterns but NOT to the absurd amount that are in some display cases out here.
There are of course those options and you’re free to wear what you want (you’re of course supposed to dress however makes you feel comfortable)
BUT please know there aren’t that many people pimped out in stripes, loud prints, bold colors etc unless strategic and can look clean (like a lowkey but stylish trendy vibe).
The amount of terrible patterns I wore when I first arrived… it was embarrassing.
I say this because I like fitting in, if you don’t mind not then keep scrolling, but if you do… I hope this helps 🫶
