Clothing is defined, in its broadest sense, as coverings for the torso and limbs as well as coverings for the hands gloves, feet socks, shoes, sandals, boots and head hats, caps. Humans nearly universally wear clothing, which is also known as dress, garments, attire, or apparel. People wear clothing for functional as well as for social reasons. Clothing protects the vulnerable nude human body from the extremes of weather, other features of our environment, and for safety reasons. Every article of clothing also carries a cultural and social meaning. Human beings are the only mammals known to wear clothing, with the exception of human pets clothed by their owners. People also decorate their bodies with makeup or cosmetics, perfume, and other ornamentation; they also cut, dye, and arrange the hair of their heads, faces, and bodies see hairstyle, and sometimes also mark their skin by tattoos, scarifications, and piercings. All these decorations contribute to the overall effect and message of clothing, but do not constitute clothing per se. Articles carried rather than worn such as purses, canes, and umbrellas are normally counted as fashion accessories rather than as clothing. Jewelry and eyeglasses are usually counted as accessories as well, even though mon speech these items are described as being worn rather than carried. The practical function of clothing is to protect the human body from dangers in the environment: weather strong sunlight, extreme heat or cold, and precipitation, for example, insects, noxious chemicals, weapons, and contact with abrasive substances, and other hazards. Clothing can protect against many things that might injure the naked human body. In some cases clothing protects the environment from the clothing wearer as well example: medical scrubs. Humans have shown extreme inventiveness in devising clothing solutions to practical problems and the distinction between clothing and other protective equipment is not always clear-cut. See, among others: air conditioned clothing, armor, diving suit, swimsuit, bee-keepers costume, motorcycle leathers, high-visibility clothing, and protective clothing. Social messages sent by clothing, accessories, and decorations can involve social status, occupation, ethnic and religious affiliation, marital status and sexual availability, etc. Humans must know the code in order to recognize the message transmitted. If different groups read the same item of clothing or decoration with different meanings, the wearer may provoke unanticipated responses. In many societies, people of high rank reserve special items of clothing or decoration for themselves as symbols of their social status. In ancient times, only Roman senators could wear garments dyed with Tyrian purple; only high-ranking Hawaiian chiefs could wear feather cloaks and palaoa or carved whale teeth. Under the Travancore kingdom of Kerala India, lower caste women caste had to pay a tax for the right to cover their upper body.
