This question is missing the answer choices. I was able to find them online. They are as follows:

A. real self-image

B. personality

C. ideal self-image

D. social class

Answer:

In this case, the perception of Nasreen's friends and family contradicts Nasreen's ideal self-image.

Step-by-step explanation:

An ideal self-image is a perception one has of who or what one would ideally like to be. It contrasts with the actual self, which is what the person really is. This gap between the two selves serves as motivation for people to buy products. Their purpose is to get closer to their ideal self.

Nasreen's ideal self is a fashionista one. However, the fact that she is not perceived by others as a fashionista may indicate that her actual self does not fit the fashionista concept. This gap will most likely lead Nasreen to buy clothes in order to get closer to her ideal self-image.
