What Your Clothes Say About You
Societies choose different ways to show marital status. In Western societies, women— and often men—wear wedding rings on their left hands. Other cultures use different symbols.
Hindu women, for example, wear a red powder in their hair after they marry. Unmarried Amish women wear black bonnets on their heads, while married women wear white ones.
Clothing serves many functions beyond just protecting our bodies. Clothing can tell a lot ab out the people who wear it.
