Introduction (5-10 minutes)

The Fashion Detective Story

Today, we are going to embark on a fascinating journey into the world of fashion and clothes. But before we dive into our lesson, I need your help!

Imagine this: You have just received an anonymous letter in your mailbox. Inside, you find a mysterious picture of a unique outfit. But there’s a catch! The outfit is covered in clues that only a true fashion detective can uncover. Your mission is to crack the code of this mysterious attire!

Clue Reveal:

1. The Colors: The first clue hints at the colors of the outfit. Is it bold and bright, or soft and muted?
2. The Accessories: Are there any special items featured, like hats or scarves?
3. The Occasion: Does this outfit seem perfect for a party? A job interview? Or maybe a day at the beach?

Activity: Detective Discussion

Let's break into small groups and discuss:

• What outfit do you think is in the picture?
• What colors would you use to create it?
• What season do you think is best suited for this outfit? -Which accessories would you add to complete the look?

After a few minutes of discussion, each group will share their ideas. I want to hear your creative interpretations, and let the fashion detective work begin!
