貌
mào
(bound form) appearance; looks; outward form
animal gaze (豸) + face on display (皃) = outward appearance
皃 is an ancient pictograph of a kneeling person whose face is prominently displayed, representing outward appearance. 豸 depicts a prowling animal with a long body, and here it reinforces the visual impression one presents to the world.
