Travel clothing should be comfortable, practical and good looking. It is great to look stylish and attractive as you stroll around a strange new place, but you don't want your appearance to make you stand out as a tourist. Travel clothing must also be easy to clean, stain resistant and hard to wrinkle. If you spill something all over your travel outfit, you don't have the ability to just run home and change.

It is not a good idea to wear skin tight clothes while traveling.

Travel clothing should be made from easy-care fabrics that are hand-washable, dry quickly and don't wrinkle.

Don't wear T-shirts with vulgar or offensive images or words. Bright colors and exotic patterns might be fashionable at home, but in another culture they could advertise you as a tourist.

Unless your goal is to attract attention to yourself, avoid travel clothing that make you look out of place.

When choosing clothing to take with you on a trip, consider your needs. If it is a business trip you may need to take suits with you.
