Sample 1
Most people like to wear good clothes for special occasions, and I am a fashion enthusiast. So whenever there’s an occasion, I wear my favourite dresses. There are many such instances. However, one of them is unique, and hence, it’s worth mentioning.
There was a lockdown two years ago due to the coronavirus pandemic, and I stayed indoors for about one year. During that time, I was in 12th standard. So, my schooling did not happen properly, as I couldn’t go to school for one year, and I had many friends there.
When the administration lifted the lockdown, my friends organized a reunion party. So I went, wearing a black suit with a tie. I felt pretty good about it because, for one year, I was in the comforts of my home.
I was not going out because of the fear of the pandemic. So, my sense of dress went for a toss because I used to wear only a tracksuit daily. So, my habit of wearing formal clothes declined. When I got an opportunity to attend a reunion party, I was on cloud nine. So I purchased a new black suit, and I wore it. I also wore a good tie and went for a unique haircut.
That day, I looked fantastic. I received many compliments when I reached the party and had a gala time with my friends. The good moments I spent that day will always remain etched in my memories.
Sample 2
I have worn my favourite clothes in person. Still, I think that one occasion I perfectly remember when I wore my favourite clothes was my 16th birthday it was a polo T-shirt with a black jean the T-shirt was of white, beige colour and had a polo remarkable sign of royal flora and company.
I wore it with my favourite Nike shoes and my watch. The outfit was my favourite because it was gifted to me by someone precious; it was blessed to be my mother. The outfit was costly, mind-filling, and loving towards me.
I think I wore that outfit when I was thrilled. Then, all the family went outside to celebrate my birthday. I was very comfortable and happy in that outfit, which was my favourite. I had to be in myself to enjoy it fully.
I think our outfit is still with me, and I also wear it on some occasions nowadays, but only on special occasions, as it is a very precious outfit to me, and I don’t want to destroy or ruin it.
That outfit is excellent in colour and does not brighten much towards the person. It is also not harmful, as some outfits are neon and other colours are very much eye brightening and do not feel excellent when worn. As it gives an evil look towards the eyes, I think this outfit is my favourite till now as it has been the only outfit that gifted me with so much love and affection.
Sample 3
I wore my favourite dress on a picnic with my friends. I liked it very much, and I bought it just the day before yesterday for my picnic. I was wearing it for the first time and enjoyed it very much. It’s very comfortable, and I also look lovely in that dress. Everyone said that.
My friends also said that it’s good and that it matches me. After that, I bought only many dresses like that, which have designs and colours, and everyone also liked them.
After some time, I tried new dresses like that, and everyone said they matched me and I should continue wearing them. I liked every dress very much.
Sample 4
There are many occasions when we wear our favourite clothes; one such occasion was my college conference; it was an excellent opportunity for me to wear my favourite clothes as we thrived primarily on our college education for many years, and it was a time for me to bridge the gap and celebrate this auspicious event with my friends and teachers.
There was a different environment for me on that day. All the teachers and students who gathered there had a central focus on the students who performed there.
Through the guidance of teachers, we thrive primarily on their teachings to improve our future, and from now on, we will travel to different career paths.
The education we gained during our college curriculum helps us earn substantial money in our work, and not only that, but the social events we attended will also help us earn grace points in our work. All these learnings and skills will help us to earn money prudently in our particular fields.
On that day, I wore a white shirt and black coat, and I looked gorgeous in photos that my mother had clicked for me. We had a group photograph and personal images on stage. I felt motivated and happy when I received my certificate. It was a memorable moment for me. I will never forget that day.
Follow-ups
Here are some examples of follow-up questions that the examiner might ask during your speaking part 3 related to the cue card: “Describe an occasion you wore your favourite clothes”.
1. Do you think people should dress up formally for the workplace?
Yes, people should dress up formally for the workplace because your uniform or attire should be good if you are doing work. It gives you a nice look.
2. Why do some people like to wear traditional clothes?
People like to wear traditional clothes because it’s their tradition, which they have inherited from their forefathers. They want to carry out that tradition because while Western culture influences most people, we should not forget ours.
3. Will traditional clothes disappear in the future?
I think so because people are more encouraged or motivated to adapt to Western culture and clothing, and a new fashion era has entered the world. So people will forget their tradition.
4. Do older adults change their style of dressing?
Most people do not change their clothing or dress style because they prefer to maintain their traditional look. But in cities, we can see that the old people also change their looks.
