Students are generally fond of fashions. They try to be as fashionable as possible.
There are different popular fashions among the youth. These fashions are mostly of clothes, shoes, hair, and make-up. There are also the “fashions” of walking, talking, laughing or behaving in definite ways. However, all these fashions change with time. Girls wear, long or short shirts and “shalwars” or saris.” They like to wear tight or loose clothes according to fashion. A number of girls have their hair cut or specially dressed in fashionable ways.
Boys also try to wear clothes according to the latest fashions. They wear tight or loose pants, shirts having collars and sleeves of one shape or the other and specially sewn coats. They wear shoes with ..pointed or flat toes. They have their hair cut in the most fashionable ways. Those students who have their faces shaven sometimes begin keeping mustaches. Now the “Awami suit” is much in fashion.
New fashions among the students come into being for different reasons. Firstly, rich and well-to-do students generally like to have changes in their fashions of the dress. Some of these students begin Wearing clothes in new ways to become prominent. Others also begin copying their new fashions.
Thus, fashions are the result of the desire for newness in the ways of wearing different kinds of clothes. Second, students watching films often try to copy the fashions of actors.
Those parents, who are not rich or well-to-do, find it very difficult to provide new fashionable clothes to their children. If students are not so fond of fashions, they can save their parents much worry and trouble. Fashions can affect our social attitudes for the worse. Fashionable people, at times, begin hating those who are poor and cannot dress themselves in so modern a manner.
In fact, our students should be as simple as possible. They should try to attend to their studies more and to fashions less and make the best use of their time.
