Abstract
This paper reviewed the clothing selection practices of adolescents. It
also examined its implication for the family values. The current surge
in fashion, accelerated by the media, exerts profound influence on the
adolescent’s clothing choices. These includes, ungendered clothing
styles, indecent dressing, ostentatious clothing and obsession with
fashion. This a times conflicts with the family values and accepted
cultural norms. It was concluded that, the family has enormous role
to play in this regard, to conserve these values. Based on these,
recommendations were made.
