clothes come in colors of the Earth, such as greens (plants), browns (Earth), gold (Sun) and silver (Moon Goddess). They also like the colors of the Sunset and flowers or anything that is close to nature.
Witches like to wear clothing that is not too tight as it restricts the flow of energy and circulation of blood. As they live freely, and are not afraid of society, they are free to choose an appearance that they are pleased with, not what others are pleased with.
Men and women wear loose gowns, caftans, shawls, veils, hooded burnooses, and capes in all shapes and sizes. The main goal is to allow freedom and ease of movement. Witches spend a lot of time outside, whether it is for gardening, tending to herbs, picking flowers and fruits or communing with nature. So they need protection from the sun, rain, wind, frost, etc. Pieces of clothing that they can use many times and in many conditions will be the witch’s choice.
Usually, a witch’s wardrobe will consist of a few robes and hooded capes along with outdoor accessories such as a purse, a jacket, a wide-brimmed hat and maybe some gloves. As they do not care about fashion, most of their clothes are chosen for practicality and protection rather than looks.
