Dot 2 Clothing Energy for Men

For all those Dot 2 Men out there...

Dot 2s look and feel great when they WEAR...

  1. Colors that are blended and muted with gray undertones
  2. Brush silver, copper, and nickel accented accessories: watches, glasses, and cuffs
  3. Gray, navy blue, and brown, instead of black
  4. Layered outfits; Dot 2s can always add a scarf, sweater, or hat
  5. Shapes & designs that are soft, subtle, and relaxed
To Increase Energetic flow
*Match your sock to your shoe color
*Match the buttons of your shirt to the fabric, no contrasting buttons
*Wear soft fabrics
*Avoid black & white
*Avoid pin-stripes

Because Swiss Dot only has enough room for women’s fashions in-store, I decided to collect photos of Dot 2 Men's Clothing from various internet sources. 

Dot 2 Fashions

Notice the blended and muted colors used in all the fashions. They all have a soft and subtle energy... 

Note, the buttons match the fabric on both shirts below... this is great for Dot 2s
Soft v-necks, rather than crew-necklines are best for Dot 2s. But no deep Vs.

This teal color is considered a fabulous stand out color for Dot 2s. If you're looking to attract some attention wear: teal, burgundy, periwinkle, or peach.



Dot 2s don't just look great in pastel colors, but also chocolate-brown, gray, rose-khaki, and navy blue... 

Notice the button on the blazer below, the button stands out... no good for Dot 2s. So if you were to buy a blazer similar to this one below, I'd suggest you change the button :)





The ultimate Dot 2 suit... well blended, soft, and subtle. The white shirt and shoes are not Dot 2; the whole outfit would have been perfect had the shirt and shoes been gray.

Dot 1 Clothing Energy for Men


Now, it’s just as important for men to dress in the right energy as it is for women. 

For all the Dot 1 men out there:

Dot 1s look and feel great when they WEAR…
  1. Shiny yellow-gold accented accessories: watches, glasses, and cuffs
  2. 3 colors at one time
  3. Pure and bright colors, rather than pastels
  4. Navy blue, forest green, brown and dark purple, instead of black
  5. Shapes & designs that are fun and light-weight

To Increase Energetic Flow:
* Match your sock color to your shoe
* Pop your collar
* Avoid Black & Gray
* Avoid pin-stripes

Because Swiss Dot only has enough room for women’s fashions in-store, I decided to collect photos of Dot 1 Men's Clothing from various internet sources. 

Dot 1 Fashions

Notice the fun & light-weight energy of the shirts below...









Just the jacket is a Dot 1, not the under shirt


Pants that go to the ankle or that can be cuffed are best...


Just the pants are a Dot 1, the shoes are not.


Dot 1s, don't just wear spring/summer colors, they also look fabulous in navy blue, browns, ivory, forest green, and dark purple...





Shoes can be classy and/or funky. Notice that the energy in the dress shoes is still the same as the sneakers...





 
(I added some new information about Dot 1 Clothing Energy in this post. Please note, all  information above applies to both men & women that are Dot 1s)

Dot 4 Clothing Energy


Swiss Dot’s Energetic Color System uses the magic of four: Dot 1, Dot 2, Dot 3 and Dot 4. Each and every person fits under one of the Dot categories.

Now let’s take a look at: Dot 4 Clothing Energy

Dot 4 Energy is striking, stylized, and contrasting

Dot 4s look and feel great when they WEAR…

  1. Shiny sliver jewelry, think Bling
  2. Pure colors that have black undertones: magenta, turquoise, kelly green, blue red, deep purple, navy blue, electric blue
  3. Only one or two colors at one time
  4. Outfits that contrast with complimentary colors
  5. Shapes & designs that are minimalist, striking, and tailored

Dot 4 Before & After Photos: Bethany from Santa Ana, CA
BEFORE PHOTO
*The first thing we see is her tank top and it's loud pattern
*Our eye than bounces back and forth from her top to her face





AFTER PHOTO
*We see all of her body, in one clean line
*Her outfit doesn't over-power our gaze
*She looks calm, cool, and put together


Bethany is one of our Swiss Dot models, so we did do her hair and make up in her After Photo. But despite that, you can still see a huge Color Energy transformation. 

1. In her Before Photo, the image is overpowered by her tank top, which is Dot 3 Energy. Because Bethany is a Dot 4, the tank top appears separate from her body.  

2. In her After Photo, the image is much more pleasing to the eye, simply because she's dressed in the right energy, which creates overall harmony. Her outfit is simple, chic, and minimalist, perfect for a Dot 4.
