Clothes Beauty Fashion

http://charlottemint.blogspot.com/
As we all know, there are many styles of clothing. Without clothing, we can not do anything. From this point, we learn that clothing is so important that we can not leave them. However, do you know what the functions of clothing are?

Now let me tell you more about that.

Firstly, clothing has functions of decoration, health care and industrial care. Human beings pursue beauty that we care about matching clothes. We can find the function of decoration in the aesthetics of clothing. That can satisfy our spirit which obtains beautiful enjoying. Many factors can affect the beauty, such as styles, patterns, colors and so on. What is more, we all know that clothes keep us warm. They balance our thermal equilibrium that we can adapt to the change of climate.

With the development of technology, anti-static clothing is invented. They adapt to the places which are sensitive to static or which have the danger of explosion.

Secondly, people will dress clothes for the functions or socialization. Clothing will protect us from hot sun, extreme heat or cold, mosquito, deleterious chemical and so on. In a word, they can resist all the things which will do harm to our bodies.

Thirdly, clothing will convey social messages. They can tell us the social status, professions, marital status and so on. We have to grasp these so that we can recognize the messages. For example, if different groups have different comprehensions of the same cloth, then he or she who dresses this cloth will have unexpected response. What is more, only Roman Emperor can dress those purple clothing while his nationals can not. And in many western countries, only the rich can afford superfine clothes.

In addition to these, solders, policemen and firemen dress uniforms. And in many enterprises, workers will also dress uniforms as well. School students will dress school uniforms while college students will dress college clothing.

Once Indian women married, they will paint a red spot. But when they become widows, they have to throw out the red spot and dress native whiteness clothing.

All these examples show us that clothing can convey social messages.

Last but not the least, clothing can show ours individual characters. Nowadays is a period of seeking personality, we pay more attention to our appearance. There are many style clothing which will provide many choices for us. Different styles of clothing adapt to different kinds of people. What is more, different styles of clothing show different temperaments of us.

After my introduction, do you have a deeper comprehension of clothing?

Jamie McLellan for Gubb & Mackie

When naval tailor Gubb & Mackie were looking for an ambassador for their new collection, they went to industrial designer, Jamie McLellan. 
"Jamie Mclellan is an Industrial designer who likes messing about on bikes and more importantly: in boats. Jamie has worked with the best and now spends his time here, there and everywhere designing everything from furniture, lights, taps to kayaks."  
Their new website (launched yesterday) shows McLellan modelling the clothes along with some visuals of his office. Great to see New Zealand talents working together.
