听力原文：M: So you really believe that clothes carry a kind of message for other people an

d that what we put on is in some way a reflection of what we feel？

W: Oh, yes, very much so. Now people are beginning to take seriously the idea of a kind of psychology of clothing, to believe that there is not just individual taste in our clothes but also a thinking behind what we wear which is trying to express something we may not even be aware of ourselves.

M: But surely this has always been the case. We all dress up when we want to impress someone, such as for a job interview with an employer; we tend to make an effort and put on something smart.

W: True, but that's conscious act. What I am talking about is something unconscious. For example, the student who is away from home at college or university: if he tends to wrap himself up more than the others, this is because he is probably feeling homesick. Similarly, a general feeling of insecure can sometimes take the form. of overdressing in warmer clothes than necessary.

M: Can you give any other examples？

W: Yes. I think people who are sociable and out-going tend to dress in an open way, preferring brighter colors.

M: Do you think the care over the way we actually wear our clothes has anything to tell us？

W: Yes, indeed. The length, for example, of a man's trousers speaks volumes about his awareness of his own image. Or, if his trousers are very short or having loosely, this probably means he's absorbed by other things.
