November 2006 | 2017 Views

Joan Puigcercós i Boixassa, born 02/12/66 in Ripoll, is a Catalan politician and secretary-general of the Esquerra Republicana de Catalunya. He studied Philosophy and Political Science at the UAB, but did not complete the last year of either. He joined the ERC's national executive in 1987, was JERC general secretary 1987-94, and Girona's ERC president 1993-96. He served as vice secretary-general of the ERC 1996-01 and elected general secretary 2004. | Source: Wikipedia


WHAT IS FASHION CONSULTING?
Learning how to highlight your best figure assets; choosing your best colours; wearing the right types of styles, lengths, and fabrics; going into any fashion store and knowing exactly what to look for, saving precious time, energy and money by choosing only clothes and accessories that flatter you; and finally, getting dressed every day knowing you look terrific!


ABOVE THE NECK
Being that he needs to make the best impression he can to win votes, I'd suggest a hair cut. It would help him seem more business-like and put together. On the other hand, he's well shaven and that's always a good thing for someone in his position.


BELOW THE NECK
A suit is oftentimes a good bet for a political affair, but the colour has to be 'right' and unfortunately it's not here. Wearing the wrong colour suit can ruin an entire 'look'.

Disclaimer
We all have good and bad hair days. Sometimes we choose our outfits well and at other times, unfortunately, we simply 'lose it'. This is only one example of this person's style. Comments are based solely on the image shown above.

COLOUR SENSE?
I would change his tan colour suit for either a navy blue or charcoal grey one. Either option would suit his skin and hair colouring much better; the tan one just 'washes' him out. However, I do like the white shirt and the burgundy tie. It was a good choice.


ACCESSORIES
He's wearing an appropriate looking watch for the occasion, not too formal and not too sporty. Plus, the wristband is dark brown and matches the suit. Also, I assume he's wearing a brown leather belt . let's hope so! However, his main faux pas is his shoes . What was he thinking with blue suede slip-ons? I'm a bit confused . He's wearing a suit and needs a pair of fashionable, elegant, brown leather shoes . not slip-ons!


FASHION TIPS
I'd invest in a hair cut; change the suit colour, and definitely loose the shoes.
