DRESS WELL TO BE ADDRESS WELL

It has been a sober truth, about the conformity of dresses, otherwise known as attire being put on by different types of people. There is a popular saying “show me your friend, I will tell you whom you are". Nowadays, appearance, that is, the kind of dresses put on by people depicts their culture, etc. Attire has been a dog’s breakfast due to how people abuse it when it has to do with civilization. You can see it has become a tongue in the cheek, when you compare people’s understanding of attire.

Dress, which means; the outer garment worn b people has season and period, which goes with the saying that there is time for everything. Sometimes, people see it as lesser matter. The momentous powers of dresses, when it comes to inspiration, courage, mode, influence, identification, is never something to understand. When you dress, it is sometimes used to tell people the situation on ground. It tells people your age, whether elderly, young or a baby.

Since dresses can be used to differentiate tribes, ethnic groups, it means therefore, that it is part of people’s culture. Culture has to do with how people talk, dress and do things. Attire shows the tradition and identity of an individual. Dresses sometimes show where people come from by portraying your clan, ethnic group, country, whether you are a Nigeria, British, etc.
A man from a particular region could be identified by mere looking at his attire, which reveals where he comes, whether he is black man in the white man’s coat.

It is clear that, he who wear tattered clothe also wears tattered speech or talk. That is why it is advisable that anything that you have to do publicly, you should try and be in good dress, because whatever that is decent is pleasing to the eyes.

If a person is to appear before the public, for instance, as a teacher, your attire contributes to your ranking before the students. There are some students who their works is to assess the cost of attire put on by their teachers, running from shoes, trousers and shirts. Likewise, if you are to address the public, the respect and attention that will be accord you, sometime is determined by your attire, because they believe that the blind can never leads the man whose sight is in order.
It is true that, the ability to convince depends on semantic and systematic arrangement of words of a particular language, but the power of attire can never be ruled out. When it comes to a decent decorum, the denigration of your speech can easily be overcome, if you are highly sophisticated. Ones’ ability to prance about, when one sees oneself in a group that is highly enlightened, sophisticated and positivist is certain, when one neatly dressed. Imagine a man putting on shorts, slippers, shirts and tie coming out to address a bevy of elites about an issue or idea. Indisputably, he will be seen as a joker or as a person that is mentally imbalanced, no matter how intelligent he may be.

I remember the words of my mother “son, be mindful of the way you dress, while going out; endeavour to dress properly and neatly”. Though you may not be wardrobe up-balance but the little you have, make them neat because you don’t know where your outings may lead you.

You may also meet a long-time friend or a very important person, your ability to approach and interact with the person strongly depends on the kind of cloth you are putting on. It will contribute to your courage which will help you to conquer your inferiority complex. When you see, another thing is to compare, and if the difference is not much, you can overcome other barriers. However, I did not understand her until I became a victim of her advice.

You can miss a chance that would have made you to be a better off, just because of the poor or tattered attire you wore. That would make you to be ashamed of yourself unless you are shameless type. Sometimes, people mostly parents instigate people or their children against a person, as an excuse for not meeting a person who may have been a source of help to them, all because of his/her inferior attire.

Sometimes, some people mostly elders ranging from parents and other adults used to say that “I not eager to get impressed others or get award”. Yes it is true, but not to the extent of being tattered and dirty. Even if it means only being simple and neat, it is okay. At least for the sake of your children, wife, husband, other relation and even friends.
