What we wear every day has many names (from the simple shirt to the fine suit): recognise the T-shirt, trousers, dress, skirt, coat, jacket, sweater, suit, necktie, scarf, gloves and socks by their shape. Good to know: The T-shirt is a short-sleeved top in a T shape. It is named after that very shape. Trousers cover both legs separately and the lower body. Jeans are the most popular variant worldwide. The dress combines top and skirt in one piece. It ranges from casual to evening gown. The skirt wraps the lower body without separate legs. It ranges from mini to floor-length. The coat is a long, warming outer garment. It is worn over the rest of one's clothes. The jacket is a shorter sleeved outer garment. It usually reaches only to the hip. The sweater is a warm, knitted top to pull over the head. ‘Pull over’ describes putting it on. The suit consists of a matching jacket and trousers of the same fabric. It is classic formal menswear. The necktie is a long strip of fabric knotted around the shirt collar.
