44. Part VI Additional Listening

45. A: Do you think I still look fashionable in this dress? B: I think so. Blue is still very fashionable at the moment. A: This style came out last year, though. I like the dress, but I’m not sure whether last year’s fashions will be the same this year. B: I think this kind of dress will stay in fashion for a few more years. People don’t change fashions every year. It would be too expensive. A: Yes. Only the top designer try to tell people to change fashion every year, but only rich people can do it.

46. Additional Listening B: There are some real fashion victims who just have to keep totally up-to-date with expensive clothes. A: I wish I could be one of those people, but my budget simply doesn’t stretch that far. I have to limit the amount of money I spend on clothes otherwise I would go on a shopping frenzy. B: I know what you mean. The situation will be worse if we marry our boyfriends and have children. Then we’ll have even less money to spend on fashionable clothes!

47. Additional Listening A: Look at all these clothes designed by top fashion designer like Versacci, Calvin Klein, and Vivienne Westwood. What do you think of them? B: Well, they look lovely, but they’re not very practical. I mean, would you wear that dress to the office or walking down the street? A: I know what you mean. People would stare at you in amazement if you wore something like that in an everyday situation. I suppose only extravagant rich people wear them at cocktail parties. B: Maybe. I’m not sure why they have fashion shows like this. Hardly anyone will buy those clothes. The clothes you see are nothing like the ones that ordinary people wear. It seems like a waste of money.

48. Additional Listening A: I think that the designers hold these fashion shows for a few reasons. First, it’s just like a big party. They can meet each other and network. The other thing is that it is great advertising. All the journalists and photographers are there. Thirdly, it give them a chance to show what they would like to see people wearing. B: You mean it’s an expression of their fantasies? A: Yes. I think the designers are saying that these clothes are what they would like to see people wear if those people weren’t concerned with what other people might think. In a way, the designers are saying ‘don’t worry about what others think. Wear what you like!’.

49. Additional Listening B: Very philosophical. I think they design these clothes more for publicity. They try to see who can be the most extreme and outrageous, but still stylish. A: Come on. All this fashion has reminded me that I want to buy some clothes.
