With over 300 clients and years of industry expertise under our belt, we’ve fine-tuned a style framework that leads to real style transformations. Keep reading to see why our quiz stands out, what you’ll learn, and how to make your results work for you.
Why This Quiz is Different
Unlike generic online quizzes (or the ones you used to fill out in the back of fashion magazines), our quiz is backed by professional expertise. We’ve pulled on real-life experience working with clients of all backgrounds and industries. Following this and a framework of Next Level Wardrobe founder Cassandra Sethi, we’ve identified the four key style categories that just about everyone falls into. They are:
- Trendsetter
- Preppy
- Edgy
- Classic
But we don’t just give you your style type and leave the rest up to you. Take our quiz, and you’ll get actual actionable advice on what to wear and how to adjust your wardrobe. Plus, we’ll show you style role models to pull inspiration from. Keep reading for a sneak peek at each of your possible quiz results.
Your Style Quiz Results Explained
Trendsetter
9.8%
Eva Longoria always knows how to set the bar when it comes to style,
making every look feel fresh and effortlessly polished.
A trendsetter is bold, adventurous, and always two steps ahead of the curve. They love vibrant colors or eye-catching patterns and never shy away from statement-making silhouettes. Trendsetters also make up the smallest subsection of our quiz participants: just 9.8%!
How to make it work: It’s easy to go overboard when you have a penchant for life’s bold things. Avoid this pitfall by selecting a “hero” piece that makes a statement while keeping the rest of your look subtle or neutral. For example, a statement necklace can add personality to a classic sheath dress. Or, pop on a bright blazer over tailored neutral trousers.
Think about the NLW Style System’s color hierarchy: focus on keeping most of your wardrobe neutral and tonal. This approach ensures you have versatile pieces that effortlessly complement your standout, statement items.
Preppy
19.2%
Kate Middleton nails the “preppy” style every time,
effortlessly combining classic pieces with a polished, timeless look.
Are you part of the 19.2% of our quiz takers who love a preppy look? Preppy style blends feminine, romantic details with a polished, professional twist. Preppy dressers love the subtle elegance of softer silhouettes but still want a commanding office presence.
How to make it work: Elevate classic office staples with a feminine flair. For example, ditch your traditional button-down for a flowy blouse. Or, swap out slacks for a midi skirt. Another option is to invest in structured items like dresses or blazers with delicate details like lace or subtle ruffles.
The key here is, again, balance. Like a Trendsetter uses neutrals to balance out bold pieces, you can use professional office attire to balance out your preppier pieces.
Edgy
31.6%
Michelle Yeoh nails “edgy” style by mixing dark colors with sharp silhouettes, creating bold,
striking looks that always stand out.
Edgy style is for those who love dark colors, sharp silhouettes, and timeless, no-nonsense fashion choices. This look is all about projecting confidence and individuality–without chasing trends.
Fun fact: 31.6% of our quiz participants are edgy dressers! This style is great for confident professionals who like to feel in charge when they walk into a room.
How to make it work: It’s easy to see the word “edgy” and think it’s intimidating. But really, a successful, mature version of edgy style should focus on high-quality items in darker tones. You can add interest with textures, like a sleek leather jacket partnered with wool trousers. You can also invest in sets. This is an easy way to take the guesswork out of getting dressed each morning while still looking modern and chic.
We recommend keeping your accessories to a minimum to avoid making this look too trendy or unapproachable. Avoid dated, chunky statement jewelry and wear too many accessories in general. Instead, let your structured pieces do the talking.
Classic
39.4%
Meghan Markle effortlessly masters “classic” style, always opting for timeless pieces that showcase
elegance and sophistication.
Our last style category is our most popular, with 39.4% of quiz takers getting this result.
Classic style is all about timeless, high-quality pieces that never go out of fashion. This look is ideal for professionals who prefer simplicity over fleeting trends. Classic dressers prefer versatility, formulas, and the comforting feeling that you’ll be well-dressed, regardless of the day, over everything.
How to make it work: Build a minimalist wardrobe with versatile essentials like a well-fitting blazer, crisp white shirts, and tailored trousers. Then, rotate them with other timeless items like a structured winter coat or a little black dress. Worried your outfits might feel stale? Avoid this with updated accessories like scarves, handbags, and footwear. Do this, and you’ll never have to compromise your style.
