Goxip partners with leading Astrologist Francesca Oddie To Identify The Correlation Between Star Signs And Fashion Choices

Fashion and beauty search platform Goxip collects searches and sales data and monitors active browsing behaviour to discover insights into the world’s biggest fashion trends. Despite access to what’s trending in fashion across consumers globally, Goxip wanted to dig deeper to discover why people wear the things they wear and whether astrology has an influence on fashion decisions.

Why is it that some fashionistas will happily flaunt block brights whilst others prefer to wear neutral tones? Or why some individuals embrace the wackiest of trends, whilst others gravitate towards subtle trending accessories? 

Goxip has partnered with leading Astrologer Francesca Oddie to investigate the relationship between the star sign and their effect on style, for a more in depth knowledge of the customers behind all the data, and what really drives their fashion choices. 

Your horoscope affects what you wear since your horoscope reflects and defines your tastes. It defines your psychology and is your DNA. It’s just intrinsic to who you are and the way you make decisions. The best way in life to be fulfilled is to really, really live out the truth of your horoscope”.- Francesca Oddie.

In order to help you live out the truth of your horoscope through fashion, Goxip has matched each star sign with the products, colours, items and styles most suited to them, according to the biggest trends of 2020 as shown by our data. 

*While some signs will experiment with fashion, these are the styles, colours items & trends best fitted that will have you living out the truth of your horoscope, making you feel happy and complete*
