How we look and how we appear to others probably worries us
more when we are in our teens or early twenties than at any time in (1)______
our life. Few of us are content to accept ourselves as we are, but few (2)______
are brave enough to ignore the trends of fashion.
Most fashion magazines or TV advertisements try to persuade us
that we should dress in a certain way or behave in a certain manner. If
we do, they tell us, we will be able to meet new people with confidence
and deal with every situation confidently and with embarrassment. (3)______
Changing fashion, of course, does not apply just in dress. A barber (4)______
today does not cut a boy’s hair in the same way as he used to, and
girls do not make up in the same way as their mothers and grand-
mothers do. The advertisers show us the latest fashionable styles (5)______
and we are constantly under pressure to follow the fashion in case
our friends will think we are odd or dull. (6)______
What causes fashions to change? Sometimes convenience
or practical necessity or just the fancy of an influential person can
establish a fashion. Take hats, for example. In cold climates, early
buildings were cold inside, but people wore hats indoors as well as (7)______
outside. In recent time, the late President Kennedy caused a (8)______
depression in the American hat industry by not wearing hats: more
American men followed his example.
Today, society is more freer and easier than it used to be. (9)______
It is no longer necessary to dress like everyone else. Within reason,
you can dress as you like or do your hair the way you like instead of
the way you should because it is the fashion. The popularity of jeans
and the "untidy" look seems to be a reaction against the increasing (10)_____
expensive fashions of the top fashion houses.
