✓ Uh, because in my country we prefer more traditional types of clothing, a lot of versatile ones.
The phrase 'more traditional of this' is incorrect; it should be 'more traditional types of clothing'. Also, 'a lot of versatile types of clothing' is better clarified as 'a lot of versatile ones' to avoid redundancy.
