Traditonal Clothes

With the recent rapid economic development, the pace of life is becoming faster and faster. Consequently, few people nowadays like traditional clothes. On the other hand, there still people who consider traditional clothes an inalienable part of our cultural tradition, and suggest that appropriate measures be taken to promote the wearing of our traditional garments. In my view, whether to wear traditional clothes or not is not a very critical matter, and personal tastes should be respected.
As long as they keep us warm and comfortable, we have the right to choose whatever clothes we like. Clothing might be a part of our traditional culture, but we certainly need not be over-sensitive to new things. Compared with those old-fashioned ones, western-style clothes are more comfortable, and the material they use is more environmentally friendly. In some cases, modern clothes are even cheaper and more convenient to wear.
In addition, we needn’t directly associate clothes with our cultural heritage. China’s glorious civilization can be illustrated in many different ways, and some of them are vanishing. For example, in older times, the Spring Festival was always accompanied by the sound of firecrackers. But now, many cities have banned them in china. Tradition, including clothing, is changing.
On the other hand, it might be appropriate to wear traditional clothes on special occasions. In fact, they are now preferred by some people during Chinese festivals and ceremonies. As a consequence, certain types of traditional clothes have become populating recent years. Of course, this is also a matter of personal choice.
In a word, everybody has the right to choose his or her clothes. If you hate traditional clothes, just wear jeans, T-shirts, sweaters or suits; if you like traditional ones, go ahead.
