A feature of all modern human societies is the wearing of clothing, a category encompassing a wide variety of materials that cover the body. The primary purpose of clothing is functional, as a protection from the elements. Clothes also enhance safety during hazardous activities such as hiking and cooking, by providing a barrier between the skin and the environment. Further, clothes provide a hygienic barrier, keeping toxins away from the body and limiting the transmission of germs. Clothing performs important social and cultural functions. A uniform, for example, may identify civil authority figures, such as police and military personnel, or it may identify team, group or political affiliations. In many societies, norms about clothing reflect standards of modesty, religion, gender, and social status. Clothing may also function as a form of adornment and an expression of personal taste or style. Throughout history, many materials have been used for clothes. Materials have ranged from leather and furs, to weaved and woven materials, to elaborate and exotic natural and synthetic fabrics. Recent scientific research estimates that humans have been wearing clothing for as long as 650,000 years. Others claim that clothing probably did not originate until the Neolithic Age (the "New Stone Age"). Articles carried rather than worn (such as purses), worn on a single part of the body and easily removed (scarves), worn purely for adornment (jewellery), or those that serve a function other than protection (eyeglasses), are normally considered accessories rather than clothing.

I recently moved so I am unpacking and finding many items of clothing that have barely been worn that I would love to give to someone in need. I worked in retail for years so I have many items that still have the tags on them. I also have growing children with new clothing that no longer fits them. Does anyone know of a church or an organization that was affected by Hurricane Katrina of which I could mail the items to? I would love to mail boxes of clothing directly to those who need them. Thank you so much! I also have furniture, lamps etc... Asked by Lauretta R - Sat Jul 7 14:54:35 2007 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. these may help.

Ok some must haves are ~Tanktops ~Jewlery ~Leggins ~Cardigans Also make sure to have diffrent colored jeans and for shorts and skirts leggings. Another thing is for tanktops, make sure to get v neck shirts, backlass, and shirts that only cover your chest. Make sure your jewlery goes with the outfit and jewlery is the key to whipping it all together! Hoped this helps!!!

Clothes are individual articles of clothing (although the term is always used in plural form). This theme article is a stub. You can help Wikiquote by expanding it.Sourced
