Scientists believe that people "dressed up" long before they made a habit of wearing clothes. Primitive man(原始人) dressed himself in feathers and ornaments, or painted his body and wrapped himself in animal skins. It was probably sometimes before man discovered that the decorations keep him warm and protected him from various injuries(伤害). Today, millions of people who wear little clothing use ornaments and decorations.

科学家们认为人们在养成穿衣习惯之前,很久就开始打扮自己了。原始人用羽毛和饰品,或者在身体上画图案,用动物的皮包裹自己,来打扮自己。可能在人类发现这些装饰可以保暖,可以保护他们免受各种伤害。今天,数百万衣服穿得很少的人也使用装饰品和装饰。
