Clothing

Clothing is various, many localities featuring a blend of attire depending on situational or ambient necessity. Wear however is often archaic. Many articles typically range from the 1800s to the early 1900s in functionality.

Wool, linen, lace, denim, silk, leather, and other material is frequent during most seasons, although something that varies depending on climate.

Lighter wear can range from plain cloth to flowery or patterned attire. As of most clothing, there can be meaning or purpose to a specific design. Many patterns historically were meant to designate individual families and at times communities, although this has evidently since diversified to broader precedents.

Heavy wear is various in style, and varieties are often localised amid colder climate ranges. Patterns and designs in some cases are meant to stand out from ice and snow and alike terrain.

Patterns embroidered into cloth, or cut into metal, can have aesthetic purposes as well as practicability. Defences, and sometimes other factors correlate to specific symbols and iconography. The variety of writing and symbols used is encompassing, and many typically have individual or traditional significance to those who utilise patterns. Despite the diversity, there is potency in most or every case. This is hypothesised to be perhaps due to inherent significance per passed down, and learned, imagery. Many examples of iconography are difficult for others to recognise, which can have advantage.

Sweaters and guernsey are a norm in some regions with wool production or that exist along coastal lines. These can be considered more generalised articles due to cultural diffusion.

Synthetic fabrics are rare as an element due to isolative cultural boundaries from 'elsewhere', distribution infrequent.
