Fashion is taking over our lives

The type of clothes we wear has changed much since humans started usingwearing them. What's more, the way people feel aboutr their appearance has changed with it.

For some people, looking good is one of their priorities when they leave their houses. However, it is not that important. In spite of this Despite of it[USE "IN SPITE OF" WITH "OF," OR "DESPITE" WITHOUT "OF"--SO YOU COULD SAY "IN SPITE OF THIS" OR "DESPITE THIS"], nowadays, you can be judged by the clothes you wear or your skin colour. It is important only when you attend meetings or job interviews and you want to give a first good impression.
Clothes, as the years go bythrough ( or over the years ["OVER THE YEARS" IS ALSO CORRECT]), have changed their appearance as well as their prices. Clothes are so overpriced that some people cannot afford to dress properly as not everybody is willing to pay thousands of euros for a piece of clothing.

As for clothes' appearance , that has been revolutionary. People went from wearing boring clothes to wearing bright coloured clothes. A simple piece of clothing changed a lot of people's minds.

To sum up, clothes can be something really important to everybody. They give you a whole new perspective.


I used the word 'clothes' many times. I would like you to give some synonyms to make this essay more natural. Thanks !

[INSTEAD OF "CLOTHES," YOU COULD HAVE SAID "FASHION," "STYLE," OR "APPAREL."]

[VERY GOOD JOB. MOST OF THESE SUGGESTIONS ARE JUST TO MAKE IT SOUND MORE NATIVE. ONE NOTE: MENTIONING SKIN COLOR ALONGSIDE FASHION IS VERY TRICKY. TO BE JUDGED BY ONE'S SKIN COLOR IS A SERIOUS ISSUE. TO BE JUDGED BY CLOTHING IS NOT.]
