are known for their turbans and their colorful gowns.

Natives make a square piece of cloth into a blouse, which is
called a huipil. Men wear a less
decorated huipil with a blue or red sash, but women often embroider them
elaborately.

long john's (an undergarment, basically long underwear), ear muffs, scarves,
gloves, mittens, tuques (woolen caps), various jackets made of linen and
leather, leggings, ojibwa
shirts, trousers, and moccasins. These are unisex
clothes, good for both men and women.

Costa Rica has their own traditional clothing. These traditional garments are
worn on holidays and special occasions. During other times, Ticos wear normal
western clothing like shorts and t-shirts.
Cuba

Australia and Oceania
New South Wales
Queensland clothing
includes the predominance of the English language, the existence of a democratic system of
government drawing upon the British traditions
of Westminster Government,
Parliamentarianism and constitutional
monarchy,
American constitutionalist and federalist traditions, Christianity as the dominant religion, and
the popularity of sports originating in (or
influenced by) the British Isles. Australian culture
has diverged significantly since British
settlement.
The traditional
Welsh costume is a costume
once worn by rural women in Wales. It was
identified as being different from that worn by the rural women of England by
many of the English visitors who toured Wales during the late 18th and early
19th centuries. It is very likely that what they wore was a survival of a
pan-European costume worn by working rural women. This included a version of
the bedgown,
originally worn by the gentry in the 17th and 18th centuries, an item of
clothing that survived in Wales for longer than elsewhere in Britain. The
unique Welsh hat, which first made its appearance in the 1830s, was used as
an icon of Wales from the 1840s.
QueenslandHo
Clothing worn in
Queensland has been, and remains rich with inconsistencies. Since European
settlement, it has ranged from colonial men in tropical whites and pith
helmets, bourgeois women in uncomfortable bustles, to the tough work gear of
outback station dwellers or Chinese laborers distinctive in straw hats with
loose tunics and trousers. More recently one can point to those notorious
property developers ‘the white shoe brigade’; the gaudy leisurewear and
glittery accessories of the well-heeled at Surfers Paradise; stockowners with
broad felt hats at the Ekka; Steve Irwin’s signature khaki - or even the city
suits treated with suspicion west of Toowoomba. Attire has been as much
Cloudland ball gowns and schoolgirls in hats and gloves, as flashy 1960s Gold
Coast meter maids in gold lamé bikinis. What we can say though, is that until
globalisation, Brisbane dress has been more conservative than Melbourne or
Sydney. Everywhere, climate, occupation, demography and life habits have all
inflected clothing, while class, gender, age as well as race add to its
complexities. But even in the twenty-first century, the weather of the Sunshine
State continues to affect choice.
Victoria
Victorian clothing is featured in photographs,
prints, and articles - everything to help dress the part of the elegant
Victorian lady, gentleman, or child. Colorful antique fashion prints show 19th
century clothing from the Victorian period. Step by step description of
clothing worn by the 19th century lady, starting with her undergarments to her
dress. Find Victorian hats trimmed with feathers, flowers and ribbons - a
must-have fashion accessory. Evening gowns, dresses, hats and bonnets from the
years of Pride and Prejudice.
Western Australia
Tasmania
The culture
of Australia is a Western culture, derived primarily from Britain but also influenced by the unique
geography of Australia, the diverse input of Aboriginal, Torres Strait
Islander and other Oceanian people. The British
colonization of Australia began in 1788, and waves of multi-ethnic
migration followed. Evidence of a significant Anglo-Celtic heritage includes the
predominance of the English language, the existence of a democratic system of government drawing
upon the British traditions of Westminster Government,
Parliamentarianism and constitutional
monarchy, American constitutionalist and federalist traditions, Christianity as the dominant
religion, and the popularity of sports originating in (or influenced by) the
British Isles. Australian culture has diverged significantly since British
settlement.
Fiji
The clothing the Fijian people wear is lighter and more
casual rather than formal and elaborate, also because of the islands' warm and
tropical climate. The sulu,
which is similar to thesarong or
pareau, is the traditional clothing in Fiji.
Kiribati
Primitively and long ago the Kiribati people cover their
bodies with dry woven coconut leaves both for men and women
