Common Dress code
There isn't a particular dress code, but from the outside, it might seem like a dress code colorwise, as all inhabitants of the colony wear clothes with a reddish tint. The reddish tint is caused by the color of the fibers from the cottongrass that is used to manufacture clothes.
They wear long-sleeved shirts, tunics, and tops over a usually tight-fitting pair of pants. Most inhabitants don't wear footwear, but if footwear is available, it is made from leather.
