human body and environment hence called second skins of body. I can get as the
best example is intimate apparels. Intimate apparels are also same meaning for
foundation garments. They deal more closer to skin and give proper body shape
and give comfortable through dealing skin is called intimate apparels. Not only
foundation garments, our day to day outer wear also works as second skin and
here I can tabulate few examples.
