"Good clothes" are considered a sign of a good look. Many people wanted to look good prefer cloth that are well-fitting, properly styled and can significantly enhance a person's appearance. Wearing good cloth conveys a sense of care, confidence, and attention to detail. My parents always provided us with the best clothing, they could afford in their time. They never forced me to wear any particular dress, but they alwsys wanted me to look good whatever I wear. In fact I belive a person should wear cloth in which they find themselves comfortable. Not something which may make them feel uneasy or tied. Like I am not comfortable in suits at all. What used to be a premier clothing once has now evolves as a dress for everyday ocassion.
Good cloth alwsys brings a sense of confidence. Lately, wearing "suits" has become a trend. Be it any ocasion people find wearing suits to be very handy, or they wanted to look premier and elegant. I remember, in earlier times suits that comprises of coat and pants are cloth of the rich people. A middle class people unable to bear the cost so never prefer or afford them. They find themselves better in simple trousers and shirts or wearing any ethnic dress like Indian kurta and pyajama. Now with the change in times, everyone want to put up suits. Be it birthday party, office party, a marriage or meeting of any kind. Recently, during my neice engagement, everyone insisted me to wear suits. But I am not comfortable in it at all so i avoided. I have few collection kept at my Delhi home, which I bought earlier for office purpose. But for any other ocassion, I alwsys prefer a simple clothing which makes me feel light and comfortable. But the generation is changing and their likes too.
Suits has now evolved as a generic dress.
Suits are becoming more common in India. Wearing a suit is widely perceived as a sign of seriousness and competence. During British rule, western formal wear like suits became the standard for professional attire, which has persisted even after independence. Increased disposable income allows more people to invest in quality suits, contributing to their wider adoption. The fashion industry is increasingly promoting tailored suits with modern designs, making them more appealing to younger generations. Finding a suits at any store is super easy with readymade fitting availavle at various retail garment store. This was not the case eaelier. I have seen my Dad used wear specialy ordered stitched suits in tailor shops. Just to ensure they give a perfect fitting. He always get happy wearing such auits as it required in his office.
Now suits has becomes a dress for every ocassion. In the engagement ceremony most of the male member wore suits. Be it kids or young lads or aged person everyone was on suit. even the groom too wore a suits and their relatives too. I was wondering was it only to show a high class in the society or to make themselves looks good. Even they dressed in suits, they keeps the coats here and there. They hardly kept them on their body. If the dress is not making you feel better then what is the purpose of wearing it. Just putting them for few hours and then remkving them and were back in their normal attire.
Confidence in a suit
Suits are associated with professional settings and high-status individuals, so wearing one can make people feel like they are taken more seriously and perceived as capable. A well-fitted suit encourages good posture, which can contribute to feeling more confident and assertive. But why such dresses are required during any function or social gathering. Upto office oor profesional purpose, it may be required. But when we have a famiky function and celebration wearing such cloth does not make any sense to me.
I doubt if I becomes more orthodox overtime in my thought or I missed to keep pace with the generation change.
In good faith - Peace!
