Clothing

Read Leviticus 16-18

Leviticus 16:4 "He shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have the linen breeches upon his flesh, and shall be girded with a linen girdle, and with the linen mitre shall he be attired: these are holy garments; therefore shall he wash his flesh in water, and so put them on."

Clothing tells so much about a person. It gives us clues to what he finds important and sometimes what he thinks about himself.

A character’s clothing needs to make a statement, too. Just like each character should talk distinctly, each should have individual clothing preferences.
 
We research clothing for accuracy when writing historical stories. Research for contemporary clothing may be easier, but is just as important.
