What are some kinds of British clothes? Read the Learning to Learn note in your Student’s Book on p. 154 first (reading for specific information).
Many British costumes and uniforms have a long history.
One is the uniform of the Beefeaters at the Tower of London. Another is the uniform of the Horse Guards at Horse Guards Parade, not far from Buckingham Palace. Britannia wears traditional clothes, too. But she’s not a real person. She is a symbol of Britain.
A lot of ordinary clothes have a long tradition. The famous bowler hat, for example. A man called Beaulie made the first hat in 1850. The very cold winters in the Crimea in the war of 1853–56 gave us the names of the cardigan and the balaclava. Lord Cardigan led the Light Brigade at the Battle of Balaclava (1854). A cardigan is now a warm woollen short coat with buttons, and a balaclava is a woollen hat. Another British soldier, Wellington, gave his name to boots. They have a shorter name today — wellies.
