“Because to influence a person is to give him one’s own soul. He does not think his natural thoughts, or burn with his natural passions. His virtues are not real to him. His sins, if there are such things as sins, are borrowed. He becomes an echo of some one else’s music, an actor of a part that has not been written for him.”
— Oscar Wilde, The Picture of Dorian Gray

In the sequel trilogy Rey has clothes that make her blend in to her desert environment. In the force awakens trailer, she says "I'm no one" telling us she doesn't think she's anyone special and her clothing reflects that. She wears practical clothes that blend into her life. She doesn't expect to ever have an exciting life, and she wears the same clothes until the end of the movie. After she discovers her force powers, she changes to a resistance outfit, reflecting her belonging with them now, but there is still elements of her old outfit, like the arm bands and her hair in 3 buns. Her resistance ourfit with elements of her original outfit could symbolize her feelings of not being worth much. In the Force awakens, when she touches the lightsaber and has the vision, we see her as a child, with 3 buns in her hair. She keeps the buns in her hair for 15 years so her parents will recognize her when they come back for her one day. Only after Kylo Ren tells her through their force bond that her greatest weakness is her needing her parents, her hair changes. She seems to be coming around to the idea that she will not have her parents back with her ever again, she needs to find a new family. P.s you can check out my blog at hannahlsw.blogspot.com
