Clothing and Accessories

For some, clothes are utilitarian in nature. We dress ourselves to stay warm (or avoid getting sunburned), do our jobs, and follow social norms. For others, clothing offers an opportunity to express ourselves. The garments we wear, and the ways we wear them, act as an extension of ourselves.

There are emojis depicting the clothes that people wear from head to toe, from sunglasses to socks. You will find emojis here representing the clothes that people from all walks of life might wear -- runway model, office worker, scientist, and Vegas lounge singer, and everyone in between. You’ll also find fashion accessories like neckties, scarfs, rings, lipstick, belts, and hats.
