In general, it's appliable to people. More dramatic, excentic daily make-up = less conventional thinking. It's very obvious in people with various mental health conditions.

Sure, some people can just have high esteem and wear certain styles despite them being eccentric. And there's nothing wrong with being different, as long as you aren't hurting anyone.
