β | The men of Kalrax wear light, thigh- or knee-length tunics known locally as ona. Sleeve length varies, usually based on occupation or social class. Tradesmen, common laborers, and slaves wear ona with no sleeves; merchants and the wealthy prefer elbow-length sleeves. Ona in general tend to be rather plain, undyed, and without any but the most basic of decoration | + | The men of Kalrax wear light, thigh- or knee-length tunics known locally as ona. Sleeve length varies, usually based on occupation or social class. Tradesmen, common laborers, and slaves wear ona with no sleeves; merchants and the wealthy prefer elbow-length sleeves. Ona in general tend to be rather plain, undyed, and without any but the most basic of decoration. Those men for whom appearance is more than a rudimentary concern tend to set themselves apart through ornamentation--rings, necklaces, armbands, etc. Slaves are prohibited from wearing ornamentation of any kind. The wealthiest Kalracians have rejected the Xadiri obsession with Hurkits and have established a small community of garment makers to provide them with luxurious, expensive clothing. Ona are secured around the waist by a leather or cloth belt. |
Women wear a lightweight garment similar to the ona, but ankle-length and sleeveless. Like the male counterpart, they tend to be rather plain and undyed. Women are even more focused on ornamentation, and the wealthiest merchants' wives and noble ladies drape themselves with as many pieces of jewelry as they can afford and stand to wear at any given time. Women of more modest means will pass down items of jewelry from one generation to the next, or fashion tasteful decoration from cheap, semi-precious stones or seashells and such. | Women wear a lightweight garment similar to the ona, but ankle-length and sleeveless.
