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? Give reasons for you answer and include any relevant example from your own knowledge or experience.

A recent survey shows that 50% of the population prefer the same choice of outfits. Certain people believe that a person's culture and character can be completely judged based on their dressing sense. I disagree with

this

statement.

This

essay shall examine it in detail.

To begin

with, in recent times most people wear clothes that are very identical.

For example

, most of the schools and colleges in India instruct their students to wear uniforms. So we cannot identify an individual's traditions based on their clothing style.

Next

, the character of a human cannot be proven good based on the way they dress.

For instance

, when I met with an accident a few years back most well-dressed public hesitated to offer help, but a cab driver saved my life by taking me to the hospital. The personality and culture of an individual can be interpreted by the way one reacts to a certain situation. We cannot hide our bad nature behind our clothes.

On the other hand

, we can hardly evaluate somebody's values and character based on their dress. It influences the results up to a certain extent only.

For instance

, only some things can be defined based on how well one presents themselves.

Firstly

, only a few basic qualities about someone can be understood with which a lot can be improvised about them.

Secondly

, by doing so most of the time people tend to understand a person in a wrong manner. Even though the

first

impression is important it does not have to be completely true. To summarize, evaluating a person's nature based on the way they dress does not give a lot of information, but just a common understanding about them which may or may not be true.
