啊一般來說呢,穿著在臺灣其實跟美國已經沒有很大的差異。那我就分正式場合,還有比較不正式的場合來說。在正式場合呢,男生的話,一般來講,就是穿西裝。那女生的話呢,就是裙裝或者是褲裝的套裝都是(很)就是很合宜的。那啊女生的話呢,就是穿涼鞋也是很可以被接受的。那只要不要太象拖鞋的涼鞋,在正式場合都是都是可以的。那象在結婚典禮還有正式宴會的時候,就是男生也是以西裝為主。那女生的話呢,通常就是以裙裝為主。象傳統的中國服飾,啊,例如旗袍,在正式場合或者是啊宴會的時候也是很受歡迎。那在過年期間,就是一些傳統的服飾,譬如說,改良式的旗袍或者是象棉襖式的上衣也都是很受歡迎的。那象在不正式的場合呢,其實啊就沒有特別的限制,T-shirt牛仔褲都是很ok的。那短褲也可以。那如果你要去比較高級的餐廳用餐的話呢,那拖鞋和短褲就比較不適合。那有一點要注意的就是,在開會或是洽商的場所呢,不太適宜穿的太暴露。

English
Generally speaking, what people wear in Taiwan actually isn’t very different from in the US. I [think of it in terms of] formal settings and less formal settings. In formal settings, men generally wear a suit. For women, either a skirt suit or a pant suit is very appropriate. For women, it’s very acceptable to wear sandals. As long as the sandals aren’t too much like flip-flops, they’re OK in a formal setting. Now, at a wedding ceremonies or formal dinner parties, most men are going to wear suits. Women usually wear skirt suits. Traditional Chinese attire, like a cheongsam [qipao], is also appropriate in formal settings or at dinner parties. Over the Lunar New Year, traditional attire, like a modified cheongsam or a padded-jacket top, is very acceptable. Now, in informal settings, there aren’t any special limitations. A T-shirt and jeans is fine. Shorts are OK, too. [But] if you want to go to a nice restaurant, flip-flops and shorts aren’t really appropriate. One thing to bear in mind is that very revealing clothes are not appropriate for meetings or business talks.
