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?

It is often argued that people’s way of living and personality can be told by the outfits they decide to wear. I strongly disagree with

this

statement, since these are complex parts of what makes us human and

consequently

, can not be defined by the clothing style one chooses to use. Even though in some cases a person’s culture can be inferred by their vestments,

women who always wear a specific attire like the hijab, it is not right to generalise

western ones. As an illustration of

, it is perfectly possible that a woman in the United States can be spotted using exactly the same dress as a woman in Brazil.

Therefore

, in

this

scenario, it would be quite impossible to discover their cultures only by their clothes. A person’s character is formed by many different elements and it is absurd to conceive that it can be defined by the outfits one chooses to wear. People are usually mistaken about other’s personality when they judge it by their clothes.

This

is because the dressing style someone decides to use is just a fraction of their personality and

therefore

is not able to show what their true and complete self is like.

For instance

, a person who follows punk fashion trends and only wears black can seem at

first

sight unfriendly and always mad, but can actually be extremely nice and kind.

Thus

, people’s traits can not be inferred by their clothing style. In conclusion, considering people’s attire is just a small part of who they truly are, it seems to me that judging their culture and character solely from the outfits they wear does not make sense and can probably result in mistaken conclusions.
