Clothes
“Clothes make the man” was what Shakespeare said in Hamlet, clothing and personality go along together, I believe that what a person looks on the outside resembles how he or she is as a person on the inside. Upon observation, much speculation are made about a person based on what he or she wears, or how he or she dresses is likely.
Just like emotions, one can look at a person’s clothing and somewhat foreshadow what that person will be like. Clothing, if read properly, can uncover a wide range of things, such as inner thoughts, habits, values, personal memories and personality traits. For example, by simply observing a specific clothing, such as T- shirt, I am able to gain a vivid picture of the person who wears it.
Clothing reflects personality, because people usually wear what they like and what make them feel good about themselves. In this day and age, it is very hard to keep up with each generation’s trend, be it on how I carry myself through my clothes or how I represent myself through my personality. Each person or group has his or her own style. The styles of clothing reflect their way of life. If one plays sports, he or she tends to be more casual in their choice of clothes. If one socializes with a snobbish crowd, he or she tends to be meticulous in choosing clothes. People have their own preference in attire based on their personality.
The need for clothing is one of life’s bare necessities. How we choose to wear it, defines the kind of person we are or even our status in society. As people develop, the requirements in clothing changes in order to meet physical and psychological needs of the specific age group. These requirements of the age group must also take into account the properties and design of the textiles as well as cost, construction and durability.

Clothing is needed for many reasons, but the three main reasons are for protection against the cold, concealing our body for modesty purposes and lastly as means of identification and social attraction. Human standards of decency changes along with fashion are likely to vary from culture to culture. This is due to the social practices, religion and traditions of the particular culture. The standards of clothing we wear can also change depending on a situation or time of the day. Clothing in one situation that would be acceptable may be not be acceptable in a completely different situation. Our society is engrossed with body image and is not always pleased with the natural state of their body and so wearing clothing as means of altering the way we look.
The way we dress is an expression of who we are and an insight into our lifestyle and is sometimes represented in the fashion we follow. Fashion is a style of clothing in which society believe is attractive and may change from one season to the next, whether the fashion be practical to why we wear clothing or not. Fashion changes because our culture is always evolving. People are constantly changing physically and mentally and feel the desire for new things and just as we feel the needs for new fashion, our individual tastes and requirements change with our age.
As people grow, they go through a cycle which is broken up into different life period. As a person goes through these different cycles, there are requirements to be followed in order to meet the physical and psychological needs. For instance, the needs of a child would be dramatically different to that of an adolescent. Children’s clothing need to be durable, expressive and colourful, strong, and easy to wash whereas adolescents’ clothing need to be similar to that their friends’, various colours, texture designs and is usually a little more expensive. This is also necessary with infants, young adults and middle aged and elderly. Infants clothing generally needs to be non – irritating, comfortable, safe and simplistic. Young adults need to have versatile clothing that is easily to look after and styled to the individual and middle- aged adults usually do not need to be too fashionable, just well- styled with durable fibre and are likely to withstand a lot of wear. Lastly, clothing for the elderly should be cost effective, of good design, easy to care for, easy to wear and most importantly, comfortable.
