There are many ethnic influences on apparel design such as: life style, geographic location, and values. We see examples of this in our everyday lives. Each culture, whether in the same country or not, has its very own style for fashion. When you look at different fashion shows from each country you can tell how it seems that there is always one country who is ahead of the others in the styles. You can see from season to season how one country may have had an influence on the others designs. This is an example of ethnic influence on apparel design. Another example is looking within your own area and seeing what people of other nationalities wear. Many times it may seem that they 'do not fit in' with those people of your culture. Some typical things that cross my mind are French people who wear barrets and German boys who wear capri pants. An example of how values play into apparel design is Muslim women who wear their whole body covered with the exception of their eyes because they believe its morally unacceptable.
