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. | |||
