Clothing

New Zealanders wear very casual clothes all year round. In keeping with New Zealand's relaxed lifestyle, dress is informal on most occasions. Light clothing is recommended in the summer, as temperatures are hot and humid. Usually this clothing includes t-shirts, shorts and singlets. As the temperatures drop towards winter, warmer clothing such as sweatshirts, jerseys and jeans are recommended. Wet weather clothes and a warm jacket are also a good idea in winter.

The fashion in New Zealand is casual and relaxed with all well-known brands available, such as Levi's, Esprit, Nike, Adidas, Quicksilver and many more. Almost all secondary schools have a set school uniform for students although many schools now allow senior school students to wear suitable casual clothing ('mufti'). Any clothes can normally be worn at all tertiary institutions and English language schools.
