China and the U.S China and the U.S can be a lot alike and very different. One topic that is an example of this is clothing. The clothing in rural China is very similar to the clothing in the U.S. This paper will be on the similarities and differences in clothing from the U.S to China.

People in China generally wore tunics (like long t-shirts). Women wore long tunics down to the ground, with belts, and men wore shorter ones down to their knees. Sometimes they wore jackets over their tunics. In the winter, when it was cold, people wore padded jackets over their tunics, and sometimes pants under them. In early China, poor people made their clothes of hemp or ramie. Rich people wore silk.

People in the U.S wear many different types of clothes. Form sweatpants to dresses they have it all. They even wear some Chinese clothing to! Most people dress casually in the U.S in pants and t-shirts. For more dressed up clothes women wear dresses and skirts. But men wear dress pants and button up shirts.

As I told you earlier in some parts of China wear similar things to us. Like some places in rural China they wear jeans and things that people wear in the U.S. But in the other parts of China they wear very different things compared to the U.S. In those other parts of China they wear long robes called tunics.

After reading this paper what do you think about their differences in clothing? They seem pretty different in some places. This paper tells the many differences. Hopefully you learned something from this too.
