Nowadays most people wear western clothing rather than their traditional clothes. What are the reasons for it? Is it a positive or a negative development?

There is no denying the fact that western clothes are becoming popular all over the

world

. They are stylish, practical and suit a variety of body types. In my opinion, the worldwide adoption of western clothes is a positive thing. Much of the popularity of western clothes can be attributed to the fact that western countries are the

an area that is approximately central within some larger region

centre

of education and business. They attract students and professionals from all over the

world

. Hollywood films

also

played an important role in making western clothes popular all over the

world

. The biggest advantage of wearing western clothes is that they protect the wearer from dress-based discrimination.

This

is important in the modern

world

where people are migrating to foreign nations to study or work. An Asian student wearing western outfits on a campus in the US or Europe is less likely to feel cultural alienation. The fact that he is

also

wearing the same outfits as other students on the campus makes it easy for him to fit into the new surroundings. Another advantage of wearing western clothes is that they are available practically everywhere. You can buy them from just about any shop and that eliminates the need to carry bundles of clothing with you when you travel abroad.

This

is not exactly the case with traditional outfits. In many cases, you can only buy them from your country.

For example

, Indian outfits like dhoti, sari or

difficulty. To conclude, the adoption of western outfits is a positive thing. Western countries are regarded as the land of opportunities.

is exactly the reason that made western clothing popular all over the
