37 Has the ways people dress for certain occasions changed?

The answer to this question is a definite and resounding ’yes’! Actually, I’ve just read an article about it which said that today the notion of ’suitable clothing’ is dying out. It would now appear that, to all intents and purposes, anything goes. Some decades ago you could just find out at a glance whether someone was dressed for work or was en route to a nightclub. And, needless to say, the same clothes were never worn to both. However, the article claims that in the last 30 years we have undergone a marked change in the ideas of what a dress code means. In the 1960s male air travellers were expected to wear a suit; these days it would come as no surprise to find them in shorts and trainers. That being said, there are still occasions (such as a funeral) where only certain clothes will do.
