Many cultures choose to practice New Year rituals of getting dressed up in whimsical or dapper fashions. Most of these New Year’s clothing choices are wrought with meaning, and occasionally they’re good for a laugh or two as well.

在新年里，許多國家都選擇穿上奇裝異服或時髦的服裝。這些新年服裝中的大多數(shù)都有所寓意，但偶爾也會只為開懷一笑。

1. Brazil (巴西)

Taking the idea of lucky New Year’s underpants even further, in Brazil, Ecuador, Bolivia, and Venezuela, the color of underwear helps to determine the wearer’s specific successes for next year. Red brings love, yellow brings money, green brings luck, and so on. Local markets will be festooned with colored underpants leading up to the New Year.

在巴西、厄瓜多爾、玻利維亞和委內(nèi)瑞拉，新年幸運內(nèi)褲的顏色被賦予了更進一步的含義，它決定了人們來年的成功與否，比如紅色會帶來愛情，黃色會帶來金錢，綠色會帶來好運，等等。當?shù)厥袌鰧⒃谛履陙砼R前用彩色內(nèi)褲來裝點。

2. Italy (意大利)

Like the Vietnamese, Italians wear new clothes to ring in the New Year. As with the Russians, it’s a time for presents, with each gift (things like honey, gold, money, and lamps) symbolizing something specific for the receiver. The gifts are serious business!

和越南人一樣，意大利人也會穿上新衣服來迎接新年。與俄羅斯人一樣，新年是送禮的時節(jié)，每一件禮物（如蜂蜜、黃金、金錢和燈具）都有著特定的寓意。送禮可是大事情！

3. Japan (日本)

In Japan, some people trade out their normal Western-style clothing for the traditional kimono on New Year’s Day. Then they visit shrines or temples to pray for good health and happiness in the upcoming year.

在日本，一些人在新年當天，會脫下日常穿戴的西式服飾，改而穿上傳統(tǒng)的和服。然后，他們參拜神社或寺廟，祈求來年身體健康、生活幸福。

4. Philippines (菲律賓)

For New Year’s in the Philippines, round is all the rage. People eat round foods, carry coins in their pockets, and wear clothing with nlots of polka dots. The round shape symbolizes money, and is believed to boost your finances for the new year.

對于菲律賓的新年來說，圓形是最流行的。人們吃圓形的食物，口袋里揣著硬幣，穿著印有圓點的衣服。圓形象征著金錢，并被認為會在新的一年增加你的財務(wù)狀況。

5. Russia (俄羅斯)

In a throwback to the Soviet era, most of Russia (except for Russian Orthodox Christians) celebrates something similar to Christmas at New Year’s. Grandfather Frost (not Santa Claus!) visits at midnight to leave presents while the kids aren’t looking. Christmas was actually banned in Russia during Soviet times, so New Year’s took its place!

俄羅斯大部分地區(qū)（俄羅斯東正教基督徒除外）在新年里，會像蘇聯(lián)時代一樣，慶祝類似圣誕節(jié)的節(jié)日。祖父弗羅斯特（而不是圣誕老人！）在孩子們不知道的情況下，在午夜來訪，留下禮物。在蘇聯(lián)時期，俄羅斯實際上是禁止過圣誕節(jié)的，所以新年就取而代之了！

6. Turkey (土耳其)

In Turkey, wearing red underwear at midnight on New Year’s Eve is crucial to bring good luck in the coming year. For that matter, this tradition is also observed in other countries, including Italy, Spain, and Mexico. Red is traditionally a lucky color at this time of year. Who knows how the underwear in particular became important?

在土耳其，除夕夜穿紅色內(nèi)衣對來年帶來好運來說至關(guān)重要。因此，這一傳統(tǒng)在其他國家也同樣得到了沿襲，包括意大利、西班牙和墨西哥。在每年的這個時候，紅色傳統(tǒng)上是一種幸運的顏色。有誰知道內(nèi)衣是如何變得如此重要的呢？

7. Vietnam (越南)

The Vietnamese wear brand new clothes to bring in the New Year with a fresh start. These clothes are not the modern Western styles that most people wear in their daily life, but rather a traditional outfit called ao dai, featuring a long gown worn with trousers.

越南人穿上嶄新的衣服，以嶄新的開始迎接新年。這些衣服不是大多數(shù)人在日常生活中穿的現(xiàn)代西方風格，而是一種傳統(tǒng)的服裝，叫做“奧岱”，其特點是長袍搭配長褲。
