Because of the [[Equatorial_Ostiecia#Climate|climate]], the standard fabrics for clothing in Equatorial Ostiecia are linen and muslin. These fabrics are either left in their natural colors or bleached white. Because of the predominantly {{wpl|Calvinism|Merchantile Reform Protestant}} attire is [[Occidental]], but notably formal and modest. In a professional environment men's shirts are typically button downs either with a turnover collar with some form of neckwear, or a Nehru collar without. High-waisted, pleated trousers are also common, without a cuff. Sleeves cut at the wrist and are worn slightly billowy for ventilation. In divergence from common [[Occidental]] styling, on top of these clothes is typically worn a {{wpl|Thawb#Middle_East_and_North_Africa|kandora}}, an ankle-length robe, usually with long sleeves. This is a tradition brought from [[Bergendii]] fleeing the collapse of the [[Burgoignesc Colonial Empire]] in [[Audonia]] and [[Alshar]] in the early 19th century and its name is both the name of the garment in [[Chaukhira]]n Arabic and after the colony of Kandara. In non-professional settings men typically wear camp shirts and linen trousers. Shorts are frowned upon for grown men.
Women typically wear linen dresses, but modest blouses and slacks are acceptable. Over this, women typically wear a richly embroidered {{wpl|thawb}}, with different colors and patterns signifying various aspects of the wearer's social position and it's unique from town or city to another.
