Dreaming of clothes that do not fit - dream meaning with inherited lore
Clothes that do not fit may connect with feeling that your current role or the expectations around you do not align with who you are.
The clothes are either too tight or too loose, making it hard to move comfortably. You may also feel flustered because you cannot find the right outfit just before an important appointment or work.
Korean lore: Traditionally, clothes that do not fit have sometimes been interpreted as feeling awkward in your current position or role. They may also represent a time when you feel uncomfortable trying to live up to others' expectations. (In folk dream interpretation, the size and feel of clothing have often been read as reflecting your circumstances and relationships with those around you.)
Through the mind: This scene may arise when you feel that your responsibilities at work or the person your family expects you to be do not quite match who you really are. It may also reflect the tension of watching others' opinions and trying not to make a mistake.
