Q: What are the factors to consider when buying clothes? 

A: Well, first of all, many people undoubtedly consider the price. I think we are creatures of habit, right? and we are always looking for bargains(便宜货/讨价还价), and trying to get a discount. Not because we lack money, but I think it’s just a habit we have. When we buy things at a knockdown price, we always feel we have got a good deal. At the same time, comfort is a prime concern. It’s all well and good buying cheap or trendy clothes, but if you are not comfy(轻松的、舒服的) in them, you are not going to wear them much.

Q: How are the clothes young people wear today, different from the past?

A: To tell the truth, I don’t actually think there is that much difference. Young people, whatever the generation, tend to be more fashion conscious. They just follow different fashions, depending on the era. I mean for example, when my father was young, denim(工装裤、牛仔布) jackets and flared jeans were all the rage, if you were a rocker.Nowadays, many teenagers in my country wear distressed jeans, you know with holes and frays(破损处、磨破).
