North
The Northern fashion, being influenced by both Dayl and Eidefir cultures, embroider their textiles to decorate and to mend. Instead of intricate sewing patterns, people express their style with jewellery. The most common is a combination of necklaces from painted wooden beads.

Caldraria
To properly follow Caldrarias clothing customs, the colour red is only worn by those in service to the faith with the exception of when textiles are repurposed for interior design or details in other clothing. Linen, hemp and wool are common materials, with different types of plaid and checkered patterns changing in fashion. Heeled boots and decorative large brooches are common accessories.

Abar
Abaree clothing is an important part of duchy culture. Personal expression is important and how one defines that can of course vary. The common note is expensive fabrics and highly detailed frocks.

Nar
Lace, silk, embroidery and painted designs like in Abar, but instead of all-covering details, it tends to be more centred on a specific part of the outfit. Sweeping togas, tunics and long bulky dresses paired with bonnets and lots of layering are in fashion.

Lothie
Lothie traditional clothing is often layered and in soft, sheer fabrics. It can incorporate many different colours or be more monochromatic, depending on the region.

Sarva
Sarva traditional clothing is often felted or knitted, with those who don't have fur of their own wearing furs for warmth. Colours range from the textiles' natural colouring, or treated to dark blue or red.

Eidefir
Eidefir traditional clothing is simple and made to not inhibit swimming and climbing. With their sight it has historically been difficult to craft intricate details on clothing and accessories. Even though lenses to aid their longsight are available in the current day and age, the simpler shapes and large iconography of early Eidefir can still be seen in its design.
