Simplified Meaning:

When people see others wearing a new style of clothes and they start to wear the same thing, that's what's meant by this quote. It's like a trend that spreads quickly among people, similar to how a sickness moves from person to person. For example, if a celebrity starts wearing a particular type of hat, soon many people might wear the same hat just to feel trendy or part of the group. This happens often in society; it's how things like certain shoes, hairstyles, or even slang words become popular. Someone can apply this idea in their life by being aware of how much they are influenced by others when making choices about their appearance, making sure they really like something before following what everyone else is doing. This way, they develop their own unique style rather than just copying the majority.
