Appropriate Dress – What things are important to consider when purchasing clothes? • Lifestyle/Activities • Amount you can spend • Needs vs. Wants • Quality and fit • How to care for it • What looks good on you – color & style
Factors that Influence Clothing Decisions: • Physical needs require protecting your body from weather, environmental dangers, and occupational hazards.
Some Examples: • Weather – Protection from heat, cold, rain, snow…Scarves, Hats, Coats, Gloves. • Environmental - Life jackets for safety, beekeepers hoods, hiking boots prevent slips. • Occupational Hazards – Bulletproof vests, brightly colored and reflective for road workers, masks and gloves for health care workers.
Clothes can also meet a psychological need: • Colors, textures, and styles can affect how you actually feel. • Imagine: You’re wearing soft, baggy sweatpants and a large hoodie on a rainy day. • How do you feel?
Choosing clothing for different occasions • Formal wear – for a wedding or prom. • Career wear - for an interview school, or work. • Clothes can hold you back…Wear clothes, don’t let them wear you.
Social Needs and Clothing: • While in school, clothing allows students a way to fit in or stand out. • An example would be when a teen wears a certain brand of clothing to conform to others who also wear that brand. • Clothes can serve to identify groups. We are all the PRIDE here and we have group identification when we wear green and blue.
More on Group Identification • Uniforms are an example of a distinct way to identify members of a group. • Example: Military personnel, private schools, sports teams, Sororities, or Fraternities.
Societal Dress Codes • There are informal dress codes in society. Modesty is defined as the proper way to cover ones body in various settings. • “No shoes, No Shirt, No Service” • Some religions have more strict dress codes because their standards of modesty are more conservative.
Status • Is a person’s rank within a group. Clothing can show status. • Status is showing off logos like “Tiffany’s” or “Gucci”

11.03 Suggest specific techniques for care of clothing Teen Living Cassie Spurrier
Two ways you can learn about your clothing: • 1. Hang Tags – Are larger tags attached to new garments. Are removed before wearing. Include pricing information, style, size. • 2. Permanently attached labels (or printed in ink)- Mandated to be included by the “Care Labeling Rule” and include information about the clothing such as fiber content.
Care Labels Care labels provide helpful information that can save you time and money. Knowing how to read them can keep your clothes safe! Cleaner, fresher clothes means longer-wearing apparel. Knowing the symbols can help you when you sort laundry.
Labels should include three pieces of information for clothing that will be laundered: • Temperature of water used. • For example – Cold water • Temperature of iron. • For example – Low heat • Any other warnings • For example – No Bleach
