KEY:Climate,tradition and history affect the way people dress.For example,in Northern
European countries the climate is cold.Consequently,people wear warm clothes.By
contrast,in Northern Africa,the climate is hot.As a result,they wear light clothes.

Differences in tradition also influence the types of clothes people wear.For instance ,in
Muslimscountries people wear traditional clothes when going to parties.In contrast
to,America where people put on suits and ties during ceremorial occasions .

Contrary to what people think,history is no less important when it comes to clothes.In

olden days young people in Algeria used to wear Djellabas.Whereas,today, they wear
trousers and shirts.In olden days,they were used to wear chechias,but nowadays they wear
sport caps.

The most important factor that determines dressing styles is fashion.So most of the
world people like wearing Jeans and sport shoes.However,there are still some countries
which keep to their traditional clothing in spite of globalization.
