Clothing AND body AND role

I'm a history student and normally wear:
-Moleskin trousers
-Linen shirt or cotton plaid shirt
-Wool jumper
-Brown wool overcoat in cold months
-Chelsea boots year round, except when I have been to the allotment and haven't had time to change back into normal boots before leaving, in which case I'll just wear my wellies going out.

Not particularly unusual. You see people like this all the time but the fact I dress like this relatively young and in a situation that doesn't explicitly demand "smart casual" means people are able to clock my political views quite quickly.

In my experience:
-Quarter zip: neolib or "conservative." Might actually be a rightist if you wear a shirt under it.
-Wire frame glasses. Communist/socialist when worn with alt stuff. Traditionalist/ Conservative revolutionary (think Junger or Dulfuß) adjacent when worn with smart casual
-British country clothing. Tory boy when worn by someone over 40. Dissident right when worn by anyone under 30 if they aren't literally a farmer.
-Puffer jacket: unironic garys economics fan if worn by a white person with above room temperature IQ. That or social democrat. If worn by a non-white you can expect them to be clannish but pay lip service to egalitarianism.
-Overcoats in general: Leans towards some sort extreme view. If the coat is milsurp the views of the regime that made the coat by no means necessarily align with the views of the wearer.
-Under 30 and wearing a suit outside of work/law school: tradcath
-Punk: closet tankie

Did you not get the memo? We're doing hipster fascism with organic smallholdings and Gilead aesthetics.

I am a rightist and sort of want to do this but I make my own clothes using/based off of historical patterns. Victorian and pre ww2 England was far richer than popular conceptions make it out to be. I want to make an entire wardrobe of CC41 esque clothes. Already made some corduroys. Very comfy.

Can you really determine a person's political opinions based on clothing? That's just a /pol/ meme, right?
