Unit 2 – Writing – Clothes Description – A celebrity

Do you know what a celebrity is? Yes, that’s right! A celebrity is a famous or well-known person. For example: Messy as a famous football player, Shakira as a singer, Brat Pitt as an actor…

It’s possible that you are thinking about one celebrity who is special for you by some reason. Maybe it is because you like how this person plays a sport, sings or… just because you like his/her appearance.

We are going to write about the clothes that your celebrity is wearing in a photo:

1- Take the photo and write a short introduction of your celebrity:

This is Brad Pitt, a famous actor.
This is Brad Pitt, a well-known
- A singer, a writer, a player, a TV presenter…

2. Think about the clothes that this person is wearing. Write a short list of them in a draft paper.

-> Go in order: from his head to his feet, for example.

3. Think about details of these items of clothes: colours, materials, patterns,… And write them next to the item of clothe in your draft paper.

4- Use the ideas of your draft paper to follow your description.

Order of elements: article + adjective + noun of the object.
