Топик по английскому на тему стиль. Тема "Мода и мое отношение к ней" (Fashion and my attitude to it). Описание одежды на английском

Говорят, что если вы были поражены красотой женщины, но не можете вспомнить, во что она была одета, — значит, она была одета идеально. Следите за модой? Одеваетесь идеально? А впрочем, главное же, чтобы вам нравилось, не так ли? Важно не забывать жить разумом, а не модой. Today"s discussion is about fashion.

Essay on About fashion

There is a proverb: “Good clothes open all doors”. It means that when people don’t know you they judge you by appearance and especially clothes. When you see the person wearing a perfect expensive suit your brain creates the image of successful businessmen in front of you. Instead, the person wearing old jeans and simple T-shirt won’t be allowed to enter the restaurant or many other establishments. It’s considered normal, but should it be this way?

For the vast majority of people, the word “fashion” means a lot and makes their way of living. Nowadays it’s still associated with clothes and accessories but, moreover, it influences our choice of food, technologies and even medicine. A lot of people waste money in order to seem to be fashionable and follow modern tendencies. Furthermore, they don’t choose the things they like just to correspond with social demands. Running this rat race people forget about their personal identity, their tastes and wishes.

One more important thing that we lose trying to be in fashion is our comfort. Most clothes perfectly suit fashion shows and ideal model bodies but not the real life. Choosing extremely fashionable things you risk looking funny and dull. Anyway, the power of fashion industry is so strong that it’s difficult to struggle with the desire to be similar to people from magazine covers or billboards.

I also think the thing is that the fashion changes so rapidly that there is no sense in following it all the time. I don’t see any necessity in buying expensive fashionable dresses which will be out of fashion in several months and you will look "wrong" wearing it.

I’m absolutely convinced that there is no better thing than feeling comfortable and confident in things you wear. I prefer to invest in good quality products that are fashionable all the time rather than wasting money trying to impress everyone around me.

Сочинение на тему О моде

Существует такая пословица: «Добротная одежда открывает все двери». Это значит, что когда люди не знают вас, они судят о вас по внешности и особенно по одежде. Когда вы видите человека, одетого в идеальный дорогой костюм, перед вами создается образ успешного бизнесмена. И наоборот, человеку, одетому в старые джинсы и простую футболку, вряд ли позволят войти в ресторан или многие другие заведения. Это считается нормой, но должно ли это так быть?

Для большинства людей слово мода означает довольно много и создает их образ жизни. На сегодняшний день оно все еще ассоциируется с одеждой и аксессуарами, но, более того, мода влияет на наш выбор еды, техники и даже лекарств. Многие люди впустую тратят деньги с целью казаться модными и следовать современным тенденциям. Кроме того, они не выбирают вещи, которые им нравятся, только для того, чтобы соответствовать требованиям общества. Из-за этих крысиных бегов люди забывают об индивидуальности, их вкусах и желаниях.

Еще одна вещь, которую мы теряем, пытаясь быть модным — это наш комфорт. Много одежды идеально подходит для модных показов и идеальных фигур моделей, но не для реальной жизни. Выбирая чрезмерно модные вещи, вы рискуете выглядеть смешно и глупо. Тем не менее, сила модной индустрии настолько велика, что очень сложно противостоять желанию быть похожим на людей с обложек журналов или билбордов.

Я также думаю, что проблема заключается в быстроменяющейся моде, и что нет никакого смысла в том, чтобы следовать ей все время. Я не вижу никакой необходимости в покупке дорогих модных платьев, которые через несколько месяцев выйдут из моды, и вы будете выглядеть "неправильно", нося его.

Я абсолютно убеждена, что нет ничего лучше, чем чувствовать себя комфортно и уверенно в одежде, которую носишь. Я предпочитаю инвестировать в вещи хорошего качества, которые никогда не выйдут из моды, чем впустую тратить деньги, пытаясь впечатлить всех вокруг меня.

Fashion

Fashion is a part of our daily life and a perfect way of self-expression. There are a number of factors that can influence the way teenagers dress. First of all, young people tend to imitate their idols. Some celebrities are considered to be trendsetters for most teenagers. For instance, Paris Hilton launched her trendy clothing line. At the event, Paris personally helped to style each of her fans. Another motivating factor is fashion magazines. Teens want to look like glamorous cover-girls and muscular sun-tanned guys. Moreover, children are reflections of their parents. That is why most of teenagers adopt the same style of garments that their parents wear. It is necessary to mention that many teenagers rebel against their parents by wearing outrageous clothes and hairstyles. This is especially true for scandalous clothing and piercings. Besides, by wearing a style associated with a particular group, many teenagers feel they belong to that group. For instance, one of the latest teenagers" trends in fashion is the EMO style which is characterized by a mixture of gothic and punk styles. Emos have black dyed hair with brightly colored highlights and piercings on weird places like lips, tongue or eyebrows. They prefer brightly colored clothes, which help them to stand out in a crowd.

Nowadays there are many styles of clothing. So, clothes and colors should fit the occasion when they are worn. In the wardrobe of every teenager there should be casual clothing, school uniforms, sportswear, house wear, sleeping garments and Sunday wear. For instance, school uniforms should be simple and comfortable. Students must shine with their knowledge and exert themselves rather than organize a fashion show. School uniforms prevent bullying among peers, because all the students are wearing the same outfit and no one is left standing out. So, if your parents can"t afford to spend 16,000 rubles on a pair of brand-name jeans, there is no reason for worries anymore.

As far as I am concerned, I prefer casual style in clothes. I tend to wear jeans, T-shirts, sneakers and rompers. The most important thing for me is to look stylish, no matter how much money I can spend for my clothes. As is known, accessories have played a key role in fashion since ancient times. So, if you want to be a standout, simply put on attractive and appropriate fashion accessories, such as bracelets, rings, necklaces or watches. Besides, if you have a good hand in mixing different colors and know much about latest trends in fashion, you can create unique and chic fashion look yourself without the help of a professional stylist.

Мода

Мода - это часть нашей повседневной жизни и отличный способ самовыражения. Существует множество факторов, которые влияют на выбор одежды подростками. Прежде всего, молодые люди часто пытаются подражать своим кумирам. Некоторые из звезд считаются законодателями моды. К примеру, Пэрис Хилтон запустила свою линию модной одежды для подростков. На празднике в честь открытия она лично помогала подбирать образ каждому из ее фанатов. Другим мотивирующим фактором являются журналы мод. Подростки хотят быть похожими на гламурных девушек с обложки и мускулистых загорелых парней. Более того, дети являются отражением своих родителей. Именно поэтому многие подростки выбирают такой же стиль в одежде, как и их родители. Необходимо отметить, что многие молодые люди надевают шокирующие наряды и делают странные прически с одной целью - чтобы таким образом выразить свой протест родителям. Это особенно касается вызывающей одежды и пирсинга. Кроме того, определенный стиль одежды ассоциируется у подростков с принадлежностью к какой-то группе. К примеру, одной из последних тенденций в подростковой моде является стиль ЭМО, который характеризуется смешением готического и «панк» стилей при создании образа. Подростки ЭМО обычно красят волосы в черный цвет с добавлением ярких прядей и отдают предпочтение пирсингу на таких частях тела, как губы, язык и брови. Они любят одежду ярких расцветок, что помогает им выделиться из толпы.

На сегодняшний день существует множество стилей одежды. Однако вещи и цвета должны всегда соответствовать случаю, по которым их надевают. В гардеробе каждого подростка должна быть повседневная и выходная одежда, школьная форма, спортивная и домашняя одежда, а также одежда для дома и сна. К примеру, школьная форма должна быть неброской и удобной. Ведь ученики должны выделяться знаниями и проявлять себя в учебе, а не устраивать показ мод. Школьная форма может предотвратить издевательства со стороны сверстников, поскольку все учащиеся будут носить одинаковую одежду, и никто не будет выделяться. Итак, если ваши родители не могут позволить себе потратить шестнадцать тысяч рублей на пару брендовых джинсов, у вас больше нет повода для беспокойств.

Что касается меня, то я предпочитаю повседневный стиль в одежде «кэжуал». Я люблю носить джинсы, футболки, кеды и комбинезоны. Самое важное для меня - это выглядеть стильно, и не важно, сколько денег я могу потратить на одежду Как известно, аксессуары еще с античных времен играли ключевую роль в моде. Поэтому, если вы хотите выделиться, просто наденьте яркие и соответствующие по стилю модные аксессуары, такие как браслеты, кольца, ожерелья или часы. Кроме всего прочего, если вы умеете сочетать цвета и знаете о последних тенденциях моды, вы сможете создать свой элегантный и уникальный образ, даже не прибегая к помощи профессионального стилиста.

Most people believe that it’s important to look nice. However, some people say that we place too much importance on appearance and fashion. One will hardly disagree that it is pleasant to look at a person who is neatly and beautifully dressed. A person usually chooses clothes according to his or her age, social class, financial position and occupation. People also choose clothes according to their preferences and character.

To my mind, if a person wants to produce a good impression and to be successful, he or she must look nice. When people speak to you, they always pay attention to your appearance and your clothes. If you look sloppy and untidy, they will try to avoid you. There is a saying that "good clothes open all doors” and I quite agree with it.

But some people place too much importance on their appearance. They spend much money on expensive clothes and sometimes they look ridiculous trying to be fashionable. There are some styles that can surprise and even shock people such as punks, hippies or Goths. It looks strange when a person wears razor blades instead of earrings, dyes his or her hair bright red or purple or puts on shoes on enormous platform. Some teenagers are fond of bright make-up, black fingernails, scruffy long hair or baggy clothes. But I think it is silly to slavishly follow the current fashions.

In conclusion, I’d like to say that nowadays fashion becomes even more influential than it was in the past. It effects and moulds public taste. I believe that people should follow fashion and pay attention to their appearance, but it should never become a kind of obsession.

Some teenagers think that clothes make the man, while others don’t care much about what they wear. Nowadays the word "fashion” is a synonym for beauty, style and glamour.

Every shop offers a wide choice of fashionable clothes and it is hard to resist the temptation to buy something new. But is it all right to put so much attention to clothes? Personally, I am sure that there are more important things in life than fashion. To my mind, people speak too much about it and waste a lot of money on clothes. I have a pair of jeans and I wear them every day. I think jeans are comfortable and cheap. I never go for the latest styles or buy very expensive clothes.

However, most teenagers say that clothes show their personality. Besides, they are the first thing people see when they meet them. Teenagers believe that clothes help them produce a favourable impression and they say they feel better when they are dressed well. Young people also use bright make-up, cut and dye their hair and carry different accessories such as bags, purses, glasses, jewellery, hats or scarves in order to attract attention. Some youngsters are fond of experimenting with their look and mixing styles. But I don’t think it is wise to become a fashion victim.

To conclude, I believe that clothes do not make the man. The main aim of clothes is to protect the human body from extreme weather, insects, chemicals and other hazards. The second aim is to attract attention and to indicate status. In my opinion, the main thing about clothes is comfort. As for beauty and style, they are less important.

The question of what pupils should wear to school rouses strong feelings on both sides. Some people give many reasons in favor of school uniforms. However, there are a lot of people who are against them. The problem of school uniforms is discussed in every school. The majority of schoolchildren have a negative attitude to wearing a uniform. Nevertheless, there are arguments for school uniforms that should not be discounted.

To my mind, the school uniform has a lot of advantages. Firstly, some teenagers wear clothes that are not appropriate at school such as short skirts or clothes with vulgar language. Secondly, teachers say that uniforms help improve discipline and reduce peer pressure and bullying. It should also be noted that most pupils don’t mind wearing uniforms. The wearing of school uniforms helps pupils realize that a person’s unique gifts and personality traits go deeper than their clothes. What is more, the school uniform promotes equality because everyone has to wear the same.

However, some teachers believe that bringing in uniforms will not solve the school discipline problem. Clothes are not the main cause of bullying and therefore it will continue, regardless of dress policy. Most pupils are convinced that school uniforms interfere with their rights for self-expression. Some parents are also against uniforms because they are not cheap. But on the other hand, it is true that teenagers place too much importance on appearance and fashion. So pupils whose parents cannot afford to buy them fashionable clothes often become outsiders and suffer from bullying and emotional stress. So I think that a school uniform can prove to be a cheaper way of dressing children.

To conclude, school uniforms still remain a hot topic. I believe it is up to pupils, their teachers and parents to decide whether children should wear uniforms or not.

Some people like fur coats and hats, while others think that wearing fur is unacceptable. Animal furs have long served to make clothes or to decorate them. However, the use of fur as clothing and decoration is considered controversial by some people.

Personally, I don’t wear fur for several reasons. Firstly, the production of fur coats and hats involves cruelty to animals. Millions of foxes, rabbits, minks, beavers, chinchillas and other animals are killed on farms because of their commercially valuable fur. Many of these animals are raised in cages which leave them little room to move around. Most animal rights groups object to the trapping and killing of wildlife. The anti-fur movement involves celebrities who try to convince people that fur is not fashionable. Secondly, nowadays there are a lot of materials that will not let you freeze. Thirdly, fur is very expensive and I can’t afford to buy fur coats and hats.

On the other hand, in some climates it is so cold that people can’t do without fur. For some regions in Russia fur trade is the only business that gives people an opportunity to support their families. Besides, some people prefer furs to artificial materials because they are healthier and much more beautiful. Anyway, it is difficult to convince people not to buy fur.

To sum up, it is unacceptable to wear furs only because of their beauty. I strongly feel that fur must be worn only as a necessity.

Most fashion houses complain that producers of knockoff versions copy and sell their designs. Some people say that copies are much worse than the original. However, the knockoff industry brings some positive effects to trends and to the designers as well. A lot of manufacturers copy famous designers and produce knockoff suits, dresses, jeans, bags and accessories. Some people can’t decide whether the massive knockoff industry is a good or bad thing.

Personally, I think that the fashion industry is an expensive one. So it is no wonder the knockoff business is so successful. Ordinary people want to have access to the latest styles and trends as much as the wealthy do. Most middle class consumers cannot afford to pay 1000 euros for designer jeans, but they can buy a 100 euro imitation. As a rule everybody knows that they buy copies, and so there are no complaints about the quality. What is more, knockoff clothes can be in the shops within two or three days of a fashion show, before the original is available for sale.

On the other hand, the quality of most copies is extremely low. Poorly made knockoff suits lose colour; bags fall apart. Fashion houses say that they are losing sales because of the knockoff industry. Besides, knockoff versions have a negative effect on their image. But to my mind, knockoffs bring more good than bad to the fashion industry because they actually promote the brand or designer, which encourages consumers to buy fashion labels.

To conclude, the copying of brand names and logos is outlawed. However, the knockoff industry is thriving and producers of copies are becoming richer and richer. But in spite of the knockoff business, fashion designers have remained more than wealthy. Therefore, I believe that prohibiting knockoffs would be eliminating more good than bad.

A lot of young people cover their bodies with tattoos and decorate them with piercing. However, others say that body art has many drawbacks. Tattooing and piercing are popular in many parts of the world and they are practiced for decorative, religious or other reasons. As the use of body art grows, it is becoming a controversial issue.

In my opinion, tattoos and piercing don’t make people more beautiful. Most employers don’t want employees to have tattoos and piercing because it gives them an air of unprofessionalism. Some people are asked to remove belly rings or tongue studs when they are at work. Employees often have to wear long sleeves and trousers to hide their tattoos. Sometimes young people are allowed to show their tattoos if they are not offensive, but most companies still prefer conventional looks. Furthermore, doctors warn people against possible dangers of tattooing and piercing including bacterial infection and allergic reactions. These procedures are painful and risky. Besides, one should remember that it is difficult to remove a tattoo. Some people have to pay much money to undergo laser erasure treatments.

However, some young people say that their tattoos and piercing make them feel attractive and rebellious. They also believe that body art gives them an opportunity to show their individuality. Anyway, when you are invited to a firm for a job interview, you can hide your tattoos and remove all jewellery. But I still believe that body art is unsightly.

To conclude, tastes differ. You may admire the huge dragon on your back, but your relatives, friends and colleagues may dislike it. If you want to improve your job prospects and to stay healthy, you’d better leave your body unadorned.
