Casual attire

Bring on all the unisex funky prints as you select your face mask for a stroll on the beach or a drive downtown for a shopping spree. Get whacky, be cool, wear your attitude. After all, you can also partially conceal your true self behind each mask. In this regard, preference by male and females seem to converge.

Solemn attire

If you wish to visit a place of worship or attend a religious ceremony, including a funeral, avoid wearing face masks that appear loud. For such places, black, white, grey are best suited. The same is applicable also for a visit to a hospital/ clinic, if you are not the patient, though medical masks are a better choice.

At home

If you expect to be visited by friends or relatives, make sure that social distancing gets priority. Secondly, it is advisable to wear medical masks when meeting people who do not live with you at your own home, including visiting electricians/handymen who might drop in to fix technical snags.

Tool of expression

“As masks have become a part of our everyday lives, they have become a tool of expression, as well. Thats why, it is being used beyond its role as a medical necessity. I have more than 12 masks - with different colours/designs - which I wear to suit my outfit.”
