Реферат: Are young people today slaves to fashion?

Сергей Голубев

Whatdo we call fashion? Something that is popular at some period of time. For sureeveryone wants to keep up to date. Especially the majority of young people liketo show themselves off in public. Unfortunately they even don’t realize howthey become slaves to fashion, being down in the dumps in case they forget todress up.

In all times, particularly taking roots from the past centuries,person’s welfare was valued by the way man or woman was dressed. Nowadayspeople’s point of view hasn’t changed cardinally; merely people’s choices, inmy opinion, often lay neither in the quality of product nor in its easiness inuse, but in the choice brands.

On one hand we could claim that fashion often rules the world,turning many people’s heads. This can be also attributed to our younggeneration. To attract attention of others they wear non-traditional clothes,made by popular brands, with hair brightly colored. From one point this namely“punk-appearance” shows their character, shows their wish for freedom.

Nevertheless, there is a price to be paid for this. It istotally up to boys and girls what to wear, but what for to sacrifice youself byspoiling natural young skin with all those make-up things, or to have anunnatural red hair like an alien. They feel uncomfortable and become flusteredwhen they see that they dressed not so much attractively.

As for me, it is always important to remember the rules of politness,that there are different styles of clothes for different types of events. Frommy point of view, things that you have in your wardrobe should be comfortableto wear. It is better to remain true to yourself. As one wise well-knownproverb says, “People meet by clothes and set off by mind”.
