Amarillian clothing

Amarillian clothing designates the clothes designed and/or worn in Amarillo. They can be traditional or regular day-to-day clothes, but also official uniforms or even special unique Amarillian made pieces. Due to the influence of Porphyropolis's clothing industry, and the presence of Rosmarus, the most influent clothing company in the Drakeslands, Amarillian clothing is one of the most recognisable national clothing in the Drakeslands and maybe even in Eldham. Amarillian clothes are immensely popular inside Amarillo, but also outside its borders, especially when talking about military uniform or unique high-end designer clothes.
== Amarillian military uniforms ==
This section talks about military uniforms worn by the Amarillian army throughout its existence. Unless specified otherwise, all the uniforms presented were used by all the iterations of the Amarillian state, monarchical and republican alike, from their original creation onwards.
=== First Republican military uniform ===
This uniform, created at the beginning of the First Republic in September 2021, saw very little use, and was quickly replaced by what would become Amarillo's standard uniform in November 2021. An old Amarillian military document shows the different ranks of the Amarillian army at the time, and the respective insignas. However, in facts, this uniform saw so little use that there is no records of anyone wearing it other than Soronaca Aulian with captain insignas.
=== Standard Amarillian army uniform ===
This uniform, created by Soronaca in November 2021, became the main official Amarillian uniform from its creation until the end of Eldham. In typical Amarillian fashion, it includes a kilt, like in many civilian amarillian outfits.
As the main uniform of the Amarillian army, it could be worn by any Amarillian citizen on military service.OOC, it could be worn by anyone with Amarillian citizenship. It also came in many variants, some of which, however, could not be worn by everyone.
=== Variants of the standard army uniform ===
==== Winter variant ====
The winter variant of the standard amarillian uniform includes larger socks and a big coat, decorated with a tartan. It was created for Salazar Van Den Green and the Amarillian soldiers in the province of Takavia Rubia (Takavia at the end of Eldham), in february 2022, for a climate far colder than what the Amarillian uniform had been designed for. Any Amarillian soldier could wear this uniform.
==== Variant without armor ====
Armor is heavy and not always useful to wear. This uniform is just the standard one with the chestplate and helmet removed and a beret added. Obviously, the uniform has very often been worn without armor, however the beret was officially adopted quite late in Amarillian history, in July 2023. It could be worn by any Amarillian soldier.
==== Variant without armor with porphyropolitan beret ====
This variant of the unarmored standard uniform uses a porphyropolitan purple beret instead of the standard orange. While it could for sure not be worn by all regular Amarillian soldiers, it is unclear if it could be worn by any Porphyropolitan soldier, any soldier authorized by the de Porphyropolis family, or just by people from the royal family de Porphyropolis. This beret color only exists in the Kingdom of Amarillo, and is officially absent in the second Republic.
=== Standard navy uniform ===
This uniform is worn by amarillian sailors. It can be worn by any Amarillian soldier.
=== Provincial variants of the standard navy uniform ===
In the Second Kingdom of Amarillo, the standard navy uniform has province specific variants. Depending on the province, the colour of the shirt's stripes and of the hat's pompom change. Only sailors on boats based in the uniform's province or themselves from said province could wear those uniforms.
=== Navy officer uniform ===
This uniform is worn by Amarillian navy officers. On the picture, there is a little porphyropolitan purple cockade on the hat. Such cockades, the same colours as the stripes and the pompom in the regular sailor uniforms, depend on the province of the officer and/or their ship, and are completely absent in the Republic.OOC, these uniforms were, if at all, very rarely used, and their precise function wasn't officially made clear.
=== High-ranking officer uniform ===
Like the navy officer one, the cockade on this uniform is the same colour as on the regular navy uniform depending on the province, and is totally absent in the Republic. This uniform is sometimes worn by high-ranking amarillian officers, both in the army and the navy.
=== Amarillian Imperilan uniform ===
At first designed as a personal custom uniform for Soronaca de Porphyropolis during the First Amarillian civil war, this uniform then became associated with the title of Amarillian Imperilan. As only one person can be Amarillian Imperilan at any given time, and Soronaca didn't die before the end of Eldham, only he could wear this uniform.
=== Drakaen Commonwealth Supreme Commander uniform ===
This uniform, while technically not Amarillian, was designed in Amarillo for Soronaca when he became the Supreme Commander of the armies of the Drakaen Commonwealth, making him oversee the operations of both the Amarillian and the Valrean army, the commonwealth's members. Even though rarely, it was still used by Soronaca after the dissolution of the DC, as a uniform symbolising the leadership over the Amarillian army, and the Drakeslands-wide nature of part of his political action.
=== Semi-official personal uniforms ===
Those uniforms are unique uniforms made for a specific person and not formally associated with a specific role or rank.
==== Kawaii's royal uniform ====
This uniform, created for Kawaii during the Amarillian civil war, was used by the king all throughout his reign. However, his successor Soronaca never wore it, but instead mostly used the Imperilan uniform. As such, this uniform stayed King Kawaii's personal uniform, and never became associated with the royal title.
==== Soronaca's cavalry uniform ====
This uniform was designed for King Soronaca as he had to lead a cavalry unit during a battle against rebels. It was sometimes worn by Soronaca afterwards too, but it never became a more widespread standard cavalry uniform, and most cavalrymen still used the standard army uniform.
