Abstract

One cannot think about an individual’s being without dress to hide his or her body in modern civil society. The dress, evolved out of the requirement to guard one from the fury of the sun and rain. In the early days from the evolution of human being, we find evidences that different materials such as leaves, dead animal skins later on weaving of different material came in existence with advancement of knowledge, later developed into a symbol of civilization. The old saying goes; "Without clothes to cover him a Man is but half of himself” A way human being dress is concerned with the story of man’s first and most faithful addiction , his intense pre –occupation with the appearance of his own body , this but obsession is not surprising as the body is all man have to begin life with only thing we can be sure of keeping until death . It is unknown that dissatisfaction with what nature has given him. It has been seen that by using clothing as a means of aspiring towards his fantasies of better, or least different body. Whatever is the may be the reason, it gave birth to new innovations in costume designs, material, fabrics. It is reflected in the sculptures, paintings and other artefacts found in caves. The simple dress has, however, got deeply embedded in the life of a man and consequently has passed on as a cultural idiom of a society
