Tyrin

right|300pxTAI•rihn – Ter’ays: no translation.
A type of clothing worn by the Ter’ays people. A tyrin can encompass any number of styles of fashion accomplished by tying a long length of cloth into knots and folded patterns around the body. As one’s station or wealth increases, the Ter’ays layer contrasting patterns, colours or fabrics as a show of prosperity. Depending on the length and width of the cloth, various lengths and types of knots can be used. While there are not gender specific knots, men typically wear an asymmetrical style that crosses the torso and gathers around the waist and over one arm, whereas women typically loop lengths of fabric between each knot.
