Apparel refers to clothing, garments, and attire we wear. It encompasses a vast range of items, from everyday basics like t-shirts and jeans to formal wear like suits and dresses. Apparel can be further categorized by function (activewear, sleepwear, outerwear), style (casual, formal, trendy), and material (cotton, wool, silk). The apparel industry designs, manufactures, and distributes clothing, playing a significant role in self-expression, cultural trends, and protection from the elements.
