Culture

Common Dress code

Kravs dress in bright,flamboyant clothing when they can, with high-ranking men wearing long and richly embroidered robes with voluminous sleeves, fur ruffs, and pointed slippers. However, many high-ranking women have adopted Peveniric styles of dress as Peveniric gowns are seen as more elegant than traditional Kravic dresses. Even peasants enjoy colourfully embroidered clothing, and many of the Kravic serfs colour their clothing with dye made from flowers, berries, and bark and embroider them with images of flowers and trees. Most Kravic men wear odd turban-like headpieces called Zhyepak, and women often wear shawls. Fundamentalist Tvorevkans wear black and maroon, but Dyevnarii Tvorevkans dress in the manner of other Kravs. Most Kravs (including Dyevnarii) wear amulets in the shape of trees to proclaim their faith in Dyev.
