The tension between personal expression and cultural norms lies at the heart of the debate. While some argue that revealing clothing is a form of self-expression and confidence, others see it as a violation of traditional values and moral standards.

"Young people are now prioritizing fashion over modesty," says Rev. Dr. Kasirye, a local religious leader. "We need to reclaim our cultural values and dress with dignity."
However, fashion enthusiasts like stylist and blogger, Sheila Mutebi, disagree. "Fashion is a form of art, and we should be free to express ourselves without judgment. It's about being smart and confident, not indecent."
As Kampala navigates this fashion conundrum, one thing is clear: the definition of decency is evolving, and it's time to rethink our stance on personal expression and cultural norms.
The question remains: where do we draw the line between indecent dressing and being smart in Kampala? The debate rages on.
