Italian term

riconoscersi in uno stile significa identificarsi con esso

Italian to English Other Textiles / Clothing / Fashion
Fashion article: Proposte di un’eleganza discreta, non ostentata, di una classe sempre ben evidente anche quando i mood vogliono essere fortemente contemporanei pur partendo da spunti classici. Uno specchio dell’estetica dell’essere. Perché riconoscersi in uno stile significa identificarsi con esso per esprimersi e interagire con gli altri, con agio in ogni luogo e occasione.

Thanks!

a style you feel comfortable in, is a style that speaks about you

Your style is something you can relate to, that you can recognize as your own. As such, what you wear says a lot about who you are.

I'm sure you can reword this into a better-sounding turn of phrase.

recognising/seeing yourself in a style means identifying with it

There will be many ways of saying this and my suggestion is a fairly literal option, but I think it sounds fine in English.

Another variant: "Because when you recognise/see yourself in a style, it means you identify with it..."
Peer comment(s):

agree Lisa Jane : I like your 2nd option-with "see" not recognise

identifying oneself with a style means being self with it

O recognising, la prima parte non mi viene molto, ma la seconda è clonata dai meccanismi cellulari
