(Update 2024) IELTS Speaking Part 1 Topic Special costumes – Free Lesson

Honestly, I don’t really like wearing costumes. I don’t like attracting a lot of attention. So I tend to wear things that are low-key and don’t draw anyone’s eye. But special costumes do the opposite. They make you a focal point in the room. Whenever I can, I avoid dressing in a way that will make me stand out.

When I was young, I really liked dressing up. Even if it wasn’t Halloween, I always begged my parents to let me wear special costumes. I wanted to dress up like my favourite anime character, but my parents thought it was kind of embarrassing. So I wore some costumes, but only once a year.

The last time I wore a special costume … a few years ago. I don’t normally get that dressed up. But that year, my friend convinced me to dress up as one of our favourite cartoon characters. Everyone at the Halloween party said I looked get.

Well, my parents bought a few for me when I was young. But now that I’m older, I usually just borrow them from friends if I need to wear them. I know some people who love wearing special costumes and have a ton of them on hand. I save the money and just ask them to help me out. I wouldn’t want to spend money on costumes.
