Some individuals believe that

we can learn about someone's characteristics and
culture
through their choices of clothing. I partially agree with
this
viewpoint, because someone's clothing might be a reflection of his
culture
, customs
as well as
character

a character

but
this
point is not appropriate always. Rather their behaviours and
way
of life
also
indicate their
culture
. People generally dress themselves
according to
their cultural norms and ideologies. More specifically, a person's dressing sense is a reflection of his own identity. Their clothes may reveal where they belong or how they would act.
For example
, South Asian women usually wear shari which is the predictor of their own
culture
and characteristics. In their
culture
women are considered

goddesses and they are treated with respect. Wearing shari establishes them as an epitome of worshipness and beauty.
Therefore
, through their choice of clothing, numerous cultural norms and characters of them can be identified.
However
, it is unacceptable to establish a proper understanding of someone's
culture
only through their clothing choice. Because

not everyone is following their traditional ways of clothing nowadays.
Moreover

culture
and customs not only reflect through clothes but
also
through their
way
of life and behaviour.
Hence
, if we want to learn about one's
culture
, it is wise to follow how he acts or what his
way
of life is and
that is
the most effective and amazing
way
of learning about one's
culture
.
For instance
, in multicultural Australia, understanding people's lifestyles and behaviour helps us to know about several cultures and characters.
To conclude
,
culture
and character can be identified through clothing
as well as
people's
way
of living. Both are equally considerable and none of them should be underestimated.
