  1. honestly, i think they dress da exact same as we do. sry i couldn't help out that much...


  2. Bonds singlet,thongs and a pair of stubbie shorts and top it off with a stubbie in one hand..

  3. The outback look is:

    Akubra Hat,

    Moleskins Trousers,

    Drizabone Coat,

    RM Williams riding boots.

  4. im australian, i dress the same as americans. put on normal clothes for your project. but if u want something "traditional-ish" then maybe a "steve irwin" outfit.

  5. Think about what a jungle explorer wears and add a big hat with corks on string all round...so khaki shorts and shirt and a big hat.

  6. We dress the same as American people.  About 2% of the population own an Akubra hat and of those 1% are actual farmers.

  7. You could probably do the Aussie surfer look in the USA fairly easily. Get Rip Curl or Lightening Bolt clothes and ugg boots.

    Or if it's a bit hot, go for the Aussie surf live saver look and just wear speedos and thongs, or the Aussie football supporter look if they have any of the clothes over there.

  8. I think davoinau gave you some good links... but as others have said,  most  Aussies dress basically the same as Americans do.  The people in the north dress in different clothes than the people in the south, because we have different climates.

    Are you doing your project on a certain period in Australian history, or is it more contemporary ?

    There's a great article here - and it might give you more of an idea of what we wear.

    "Australian national dress

    While Australia has no single uniform national costume, an Australian national dress style, based on specific local dress styles, has emerged in response to climate, lifestyle and identity."

    " Some facts on Australians you may not be aware of :

    About one in four Australians were born in another country

    Approximately one in four Australians have one or both parents born overseas

    Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people make up approximately 2% of the population

    Approximately 17% of Australians speak a language other than English at home

    There are 170 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander languages

    There are more than 100 different ethnic groups. "

    Australians tend to dress casually in almost all situations. There are  few occasions when you will need to wear formal clothes.

    In the workplace, it is expected that you dress in clean, pressed clothing, such as pants, jeans (no holes or rips), shirts, skirts (not too short), dresses, t-shirts (no slogans) and jackets.

    I know this is probably of no help to you, so I would recommend that you check out the links that davoinau listed for you.

  9. We dress the same way as any other western country.

    So you'd probably just wear your own clothes.

  10. Just wear a singlet or tshirt, shorts and thongs (I think you call them flip flops?)
