-===== Clothing Styles =====+===== Overview ===== 
 + 
 +From the diaries of Flower Nightsky, chronicler of Berhof. 
 + 
 +//“The Land of Fate is south of our lands, and it is much hotter and drier there.  Clothing is much lighter than here, and often features loose layers made of light materials, although head scarves, turbans and veils are also common.  The philosophy holds true for warriors and travellers, who wear lighter armour and weaponry than our own, this is probably due to the debilitating effects of wearing heavier armour in the heat.  Because of this, most warriors prefer lighter weapons and rely on mobility, rather than metal, for their protection. 
 + 
 +The clothes of those who work in the fields, industry or about town, are simpler but follow the same styles.”//

 **Aba:** The traditional desert robe, simple and flowing in design. Most abas (pronounced AH-bahs) are monochromatic—black, brown, and white being favorite colors. The amount and type of embroidery on the edges reflects the relative luxury of the garment; the best abas are trimmed with threads of gold. Some abas may be made of dyed fabric and bright colors, especially those designed for festival days and special occasions. The aba is closed at the waist with a sash and has full, open sleeves. It is traditionally worn with a keffiyeh (headcloth) and an agal.  **Aba:** The traditional desert robe, simple and flowing in design.

 **Jellaba**: A heavy “winter aba,” worn over the traditional aba, and usually made of wool or felt. The jellaba (jell-AH-bah) runs to the ground and is typically less decorative than the aba worn underneath.  **Jellaba**: A heavy “winter aba,” worn over the traditional aba, and usually made of wool or felt.
