Italians are very proud of their clothing styles and traditions. Dressing appropriately in Italy is very important and will impact how you are perceived by Italians. Italians dress according to the seasons and rarely deviate from seasonally-appropriate attire. In general, they tend to   wear warmer clothes than their American counterparts and may worry about you getting a    //frescata// (“catching a chill”) if you do not sufficiently cover yourself. Florentines tend to wear more classic styles, preferring basic colors such as black, brown and white. Remember, Italians dress elegantly in the city: flip flops are for summer holidays at the beach and sweatpants are for the gym.
