some people say its lot to tell about persons culture and character from thier clothes. Do you agree or disagree ?

#people #persons #culture #character #thier #clothes
There is a general opinion, that a
person
's attire can reflect their personality and tradition.
However
, few people disagree with the above statement and claim that
one
's costume is immaterial to their character. There is always more to a
person
 apart from his attire. Outfits are subject to
one
's financial stability and budget.
Hence
, it is unfair to judge based on his dressing sense. To elaborate
further
 a middle-class father, who is the sole breadwinner for his family can be wearing untidy clothes. With a glance, people tend to corner him as an uncivilized
person
.
Although
, society's speculation may be incorrect most of the time. Our contemporary world is globalized. People are more informative on the new trends of clothes available in the global market. Choice of garments can be independent and based on individual comfort .
Hence
 it can be irrelevant to portray their culture.
For instance
, women in Iraq admired fancy American clothes in the early nineteenth century, who had strong religious ideologies.
This
 confirms that dress was not a display of their cultural belief.
Additionally
, Socio- demographical factors
also
 are frequently discussed in defining a
person
’s character based on his attire. Each citizen of the country has their own opinion on dressing sense which can be controversial to
one
 another. To illustrate, Barack Obama was wearing swimming shorts when he was on a personal holiday. Americans never mind their president’s dress.
However
, there was a backlash from the Islamic community, commending on him as a pervert. In reality, he was
one
 of the charismatic leaders, who spoke for women empowerment. Based on the above details, I believe that dress sense will not depict
one
's nature and heritage. In conclusion, few bureaucratic thinkers may judge a
person
 based on his outfit.
However
, it is certain that
this
 malpractice is inappropriate because attires can vary for each individual based on his cost of living and their own comfort in wearing those dresses.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
