The right fashion on the right occasion goes a long way in leaving a catchy first impression. If you are going for your first date, fashion makes you look your best self, helping you put your best foot forward, before you even begin to speak. Creating the lasting first impression is very important and will set up the standard for the rest of the evening.

When you wear sweat pants to a date you come across as lazy and with a personality that you don’t care about your appearance. However, if you are wearing a cute dress, you come across energetic and happy.

Fashion is the most obvious and primary mode of expressing your own personality. Clothes, footwear, accessories etc. all are really intimate and give out pretty strong signals as to your sensibilities, how you perceive yourself, and what you want to show to the world about yourself.

Large fashion houses and renowned designers have used the global stage to showcase their fashion sense and to express themselves. You, express yourself !

Clothing is important because it reflects an individual’s culture, personality and preferences. People can use clothing to enhance personal appearance and protect the body from extreme temperatures and elements in various climates. People often form first impressions based on what a person wears. Making sure that private parts of the body are covered is very important for maintaining a decent appearance in public in the majority of world communities.

People throughout the world also view clothing as a reflection of current fashion trends within a culture. Clothing trends often change depending on the season, the popularity of designers and the attire of famous people. Wearing certain colors, brands and types of clothing allows an individual to affiliate himself with a particular group. Although clothing can be influential in a person’s life at any age, younger generations tend to be more influenced by fashion trends than older ones. Fashions inspired by past eras are often recycled into present trends.

According to Discovery News, humans started to don clothing nearly 170,000 years ago. Wearing clothing helped primordial humans to survive during the last Ice Age. Eventually, humans began to use clothing as a way to express themselves, and nations around the world followed suit.
