One of the things we heard when our exchange partners were in Sweden was that they found it strange that most of us had our own unique style. And when we came here we felt the exact opposite, everybody was dressed the same way.
Everybody wore something blue, beige or/and white, beige shoes with wool inside and a leather bag. Of course there are exceptions but all in all people didn’t seem to dare to stand out.
When we were in Köln and went shopping we also noticed that almost all the stores sold the same clothes, same colours, models, style etc.
It doesn’t have to be a bad thing, as long as you wear whatever you want. But as soon as someone doesn’t dare to wear something unusual and unique we think that maybe it has gone too far.

Hej,
Swedish people take really care about their style but germans do as well. I know a lot of people who try to dress different, but I agree that the big shops sell pretty much the same.
it’s quite funny to hear that
