The astrologer spoke about the ascendant's influence on style

Choosing a wardrobe based on the sun sign is no longer relevant — the key to a spectacular image lies in the ascendant, which is responsible for the first impression and appearance style. It is the position of the ascendant that helps to choose an outfit that can emphasize individuality and make an impression, Alyona Grig, founder of the ASTROGRIG School of European Astrology, told Izvestia on February 26.

As the astrologer explained, the ascendant in Aries requires dynamics and courage. Sports chic, military elements, and red accents are suitable for such a woman. Excessive romanticism does not reflect her inner fire — the image should convey energy and activity without excessive softness.

"Ascendant in Taurus: you are a materialist who loves comfort in style. Also, you don't like to change your style often, so we recommend buying one good luxury item rather than 10 from the mass market. Synthetics is not your option. But quiet luxury is what you need. Cashmere, silk, merino are much nicer. Give preference to classic patterns and timeless styles," the expert noted.

According to the expert, the ascendant in Gemini requires mobility. Plans can change during the day, so the wardrobe should be versatile. Basic items with an emphasis on denim, light shades — cream, white, blue — will create a light and modern look. Excessive oversize should be avoided, as it can hide natural lightness.

The ascendant in Cancer is advised to choose soft silhouettes and natural fabrics to create a sense of comfort. If the ascendant is in Leo, then brightness, gold and animalistic prints are necessary to emphasize charisma. The ascendant in Virgo requires discipline in the form of a strict cut and smart casual, while the ascendant in Libra is harmoniously suited to pastel shades and light fabrics like satin.

The expert also added that the ascendant in Scorpio is close to the magnetism of skin and dark shades. Ascenders in Sagittarius are recommended to wear large—scale oversize, while in Capricorn they are recommended to wear minimalistic classics and pantsuits. The ascendant in Aquarius allows for the use of unusual shapes, whereas the ascendant in Pisces is more suited to layering and boho style.
