Nike, Prada, D&G and DKNY are brand names that almost everybody in HongKong knows.Brand-name goods are expensive

and in HongKong many people think that it is extremely important to wear them.This is ture of teenager as well asadults.

Why do people think like this?The answer is simple.Clothes are a person's status symbol in many cultures.They make a person

feel more important and confident.If you are meeting a person for the first time,you will probably judge him or her by the clothes

they are wearing.

Nobody wants to be looked down upon.so many people like to buy clothes which act as staus symbols.Who would you consider to

be better :a stranger in ordinary jeans,or a stranger in designer jeans?people buy clothes to make themselves seem more important to others.

Unfortunatelu.many people judge others simply by the clothes they wear,and this is wrong.
