Some people say that it is possible to tell a lot about a person's culture and character from their choice of clothes. Do you agree or disagree?

For as long as anyone can remember society has judged people's

culture

based on their choice of clothes.

This

essay will discuss the various views regarding how people are viewed based on their clothing.

To begin

with, clothes

has always been

Suggestion

have always been

a major part of our society.

This

is because it tells us a lot of about an individual and their

culture

. One of the main impact of clothes could be felt in the labour industry.

For example

, the clothes an engineer would wear to a drilling rig or a construction site would be different to what an accountant would wear to an office.

Furthermore

, it has

also

been argued that an individual's choice of outfit would either make or break their career.

For example

, a study conducted by Cambridge university some years ago, investigated the importance of selecting proper clothing for different

occassions

something you have to do

occasions

. The study showed two individuals go for a corporate job interview, the

first

person

was dressed in a smart

attire

while the other

person

was in a semi-casual

attire

. It was

then

concluded that the

first

person

stood a higher chance of getting a job offer in that organization compared to their

counterpart

counterparts

.

Secondly

, all around the world, nations with diverse cultures all have a common factor which is the kind of

attire

used for their representation. A lot of attires

has been shown

Suggestion

have been shown

to be really colourful which depicts the richness of that

culture

.

Furthermore

, in my country Nigeria, a

person

's cultural

attire

clearly depicts their tribe.

For example

, the clothes an Igbo

person

would wear for an

occassion

an event that occurs at a critical time

occasion

would be different from

an

Suggestion

a

Hausa individual would wear.

This

is because the difference in tribe directly affects the representation of their attires. In conclusion, I am of the notion that it is very possible to tell a lot about people's

culture

based on their choice of outfits. Choice of clothing could have a negative or positive impact on a

person

depending on their situation.
