Expert Verified

Clothes and shoes represent the image we want (or don’t want) others to see us in.

What does it mean 

The clothes in a dream represent our Persona – that is a complex dealing with our wish how other people should see us. It helps us when we play a certain role – a doctor’s uniform for instance…helps, so people don’t ask him to change their tyres, but they expect him to heal them. But the issue is problematic, when a manager, for instance, does not leave his manager uniform at work and he plays a manager also at home, instead of being a father and a husband, he continues to order like a manager. In that case, he is too much glued to the clothes – persona, that he/she is showing to the people.

The shoes in dream can signify many things, one of them is capability to do something (we say – these are too big shoes for him), or in Freudian psychoanalysis even a sexual intercourse.
