Some countries have dress that has been the same for centuries and those influences through the styles of dress have come to the United States. These different styles have become very fashionable and then return to old news in our fashion circle. Though we use these for fashion reasons, other countries use theirs for religious purposes, for protection, and for higher leaders in the government. Some of these pieces of dress that we use her in the US scarves, the tunic, and the veil. These are all influences from other countries such as Iraq, Thailand and one major continent, Africa. These countries have they own specific dress that show some influence in ours.
African people dress with tunics of bright colors, these tunics are long shirts down to the knees. Women in the US to do almost identically to the African women.
Iraq women and men wear scarves to protect them for protection from the sand. Women not only wear scarves but head dresses due to religious reasons. We do not wear them for religious reasons here but we do wear them for weather to keep up warm.
The way women dress in Thailand is my favorite. The fabrics are so elegant and soft looking full of bright colors. Women dress in silk dresses and the colors and styles have been an influence on the US.
