Text

We all wear1 clothes. Some clothes are for summer, some for winter, other clothes are for work or for holidays. In clothes shops we often find two departments - one for overwear, and the other for un­derwear. We go to a boot or shoe department to buy footwear.

So when you want to buy clothes you go to a shop. If you can find clothes that are the right size for you, and if they are ready to wear, you will probably buy them. They are called ready-made clothes. If you cannot find clothes that are your size, you will go to the tailor's shop. A tailor is a man who makes2 clothes. Such clothes are called tailor-made clothes. A person who is dressed well is called a well-dressed person. A person who is dressed badly is called a badly-dressed person.

If it rains heavily you wear a coat that will keep the rain out. Such a coat is called a raincoat. It is made of waterproof cloth that does not let the water pass through. We have a lot of rain in England. If you come to England, bring a raincoat and an umbrella. You will find them useful.
