"There are many types of slave garments, of course, other than such obvious categories as tunics,
camisks and Ta-Teeras. Pleasure silks, in all varieties, and swirling, diaphanous dancing silks, might be mentioned. The leathers
forced on the slave maidens of the Wagon Peoples, taught to care for the bosk and please their masters, too, might be called
to mind." GUARDSMEN OF GOR P.108
Interestingly, a slave's clothing is not to provide modesty or to conceal her from others, but rather to display
her and make her absolutely aware that she is no more than an animal, a slave. Fortunately for the slave girls most Masters
of Gor prefer sensuous fabrics, from satins and silks to clinging rep-cloth. Rep cloth is popular as it is cheap and falls
deliciously and sensuously against the girl's form. A slave girl on Gor is expected to be ready for her Master at any time
so her garment is usually revealingly cut and generally worn without undergarments. However, slave attire may also have a
practical function. The slaves working in the mines of Klima would not expect to wear the same sheer silk as the girls in
the Paga taverns, and a slave in Torvaldsland would obviously freeze to death if she was dressed the same as her sisters in
the Tahari dessert. This is really just a guide: In reality, a girl will only wear garments that her Master has approved.
After all, He is the Master, He decides what his property is to wear. Most Gorean masters are very strict with their slaves,
and will be very precise in determining the type and color of any garment He permits her to wear. He would also decide how
she wears her hair, the color of her lipstick and if and what kind of jewelry she is adorned with. It is not unusual for a
Gorean Master to chose to have His girl naked all the time as is the way of our home.
Bark Cloth "The inner bark of the pod tree dyed scarlet
and plaited and pounded into a cloth akin to burlap but softer; it has a variety of uses including a rough wrap around the
hips of a slave constituting her only clothing in some instances." Explorers of Gor p. 28
Clothing of the Barrens "She wore a short, fringed, beaded
shirtdress. This came up high on her thighs. It was split to her waist, revealing the sweetness and loveliness of her breasts.
It was belted upon her with a doubly looped, tightly knotted rawhide string. Such a string is more than sufficient, in its
length, and in the strength and toughness, to tie a woman a number of ways. She was barefoot. About her left ankle there was,
about two inches high, a beaded cuff, or anklet. Her garb was doubtless intended to suggest the distinctive, humiliating and
scandalously brief garment in which red savages are sometimes pleased to place their white slaves." Savages of Gor, page 102
Camisk, Common "The common camisk is a single piece of cloth,
about eighteen inches wide, thrown over the girl's head and worn like a poncho. It usually falls a bit above the knees in
the front and back and is belted with cord or chain." Nomads of Gor, page 90
Camisk, Turian This is a little different. If it was laid out
on the floor it would look like an inverted "T"…the bar of the "T" is beveled on each side. It is fastened with a single
cord that binds on the girl at three points, behind her neck, behind her back and in front of her waist. The garment is fastened
behind her neck, then drapes down her front and passes between her legs to be lifted up behind the two sides of the Tīs bar
wrapping about her hips and then tying in front. The Turian camisk does cover the brand, but on the other hand, it is tied
snugly and leaves the girl's back uncovered so it does disclose the girl's beauty better.
Chalwar This is a garment of diaphanous silk similar to the harem trousers of Earth, worn by the slave
girls of the Tahari dessert. "From one side a slave girl, barefoot, bangled, in
sashed, diaphanous, trousered chalwar, gathered at the ankle, its tight, red-silk vest, with bare midriff, fled to him, with
the tall, graceful, silvered pot containing the black wine. She was veiled. She knelt, replenishing the drink. Beneath her
veil, I saw the metal of her collar. Tribesmen of Gor P. 88 "She wore a high, red-silk vest,
swelling, fastened with a single hook; diaphanous red-silk chalwar, low on her hips, gathered at the ankles; two golden bangles
on her left ankle; collar." Tribesmen of Gor, page 156-157
Clad Kajir This is not one garment, but rather the name given by the wagon people to the four items worn
in conjuction by their slave girls; the curla, the chatka, the kalmak and the Koora. Among
the Wagon Peoples, to be clad Kajir means, for a girl, to wear four articles, two red two black; a red cord, the Curla, is
tied about the waist; the Chatka, or long , narrow strip of black leather, fits over the cord in front, passes under, and
then again, from the inside, passes over the cord in back; the chatka is drawn tight; the Kalmak is then donned; it is a short
sleeveless vest of black leather; lastly the koora, a strip of red cloth, matching the Curla, is wound about the head, to
hold the hair back, for slave women, among the Wagon Peoples, are not permitted to braid, or otherwise dress their hair; it
must be, save for the koora, worn loose. for a male slave or Kajirus, of the Wagon Peoples, and there are few, save for the
work chains, to be clad Kajir means to wear the Kes, a short, sleeveless work tunic of black leather. Nomads of Gor, page
30 "The red cord, or Curla, was knotted about my waist, tightly, the knot, a slip knot,
might be loosened with a single tug over my left hip. Over the Curla in the front, slipping under the body and between the
legs, and passing over the Curla in the back, was the Chatka, or narrow strip of black leather, some six inches in width,
some five feet or so in length; it was drawn tight; when a girl wears the Curla and Chatka, the brand, whether on left or
right thigh, is fully visible, for the inspection of masters. I also wore a brief, open, sleeveless vest of black leather,
the Kalmak. I wore a broad Koora, which, kerchieflike, covered most of my head." Slave girl of Gor, page 328-329
Kes "For a male slave, or Kajirus, of the Wagon Peoples, and
there are few, save for the work chains, to be clad Kajir means to wear the Kes, a short, sleeveless work tunic of black leather."
Nomads of Gor, page 30
Kirtle The kirtle is mainly worn in the Northern regions by the bondmaids of the Torvaldslanders. She was blond; she was barefoot; she wore an ankle-length white kirtle, of white wool, sleeveless,
split to her belly. Marauders of Gor , page 81
Silks This garment is mostly used in the evening when the slave is serving or dancing. This is also the
most common way to clothe a paga girl; it is only in the cheapest and lowest of taverns that the girls serve naked. Normally
the pleasure silk is wrapped around the slave-girl, leaving her right shoulder naked and with a disrobing loop at her left
shoulder. It's not strange that Masters like to see their slave girls in pleasure silk, as it shows more than it conceals.
Many girls feel more naked in pleasure silk then if they were naked. There are, however, other ways to arrange the silk. I slipped on the bit of silk. I looked in the mirror and shuddered. I had been naked before men, many
times, but it did not seem to me that I had been so naked as this. It was Gorean pleasure silk. Not naked, I seemed more than
naked. Captive of Gor, page 322 "There are a large number of ways in which slave silk is
worn. It can be worn, for example, on the shoulder or off the shoulder, with high necklines or plunging necklines, in open
or closed garments, tightly or flowing, and in various lengths. Sometimes it is put on the girl only in halters and G-strings,
or mere G- strings. Sometimes it is done, too, in strips wound about her body. The tying of slave girdles, with such silk,
and otherwise, to emphasize the girl's figure and make clear her bondage, is an art in itself. Often, too, and as usually
in paga taverns, it is worn in brief tunics. Most of these are partable or wraparound tunics. Such may be removed gracefully.
Some tunics, however, like some regular slave tunics, have a disrobing loop, usually at the left shoulder, where it may easily
be reached by both a right-handed master and a right handed slave. A tug on the disrobing loop drops the tunic to the girl's
ankles, also gracefully." Dancer of Gor, page 225 "it was detected, that her body as she
drew the brief, exotic, degrading silk about her, subtly and mistakably, was shaken by an involuntary tremor of sensuality....it
was the first time her body had felt slave silk. Surely it would be difficult for a woman to wear silk and not, by that much
more, be aware of her womanhood...Indeed it would hardly account for the totality of her involuntary response, her body's
betrayal. It was not ordinary silk which she then, for the first time felt on her body. It was the softest and finest of diaphanous
silks, clinging and betraying. It had been milled and created to reveal a woman most exquisitely and beautifully to her Master.
It was brief, exotic, humiliating, degrading. It was of course slave silk. Hunters of Gor, page 150
Silks, state The female state slave of Ar wears a brief, gray
slave livery, with matching gray collar. Save for the color it is identical with most common slave livery. About her left
ankle is normally locked a gray steel band, to which five simple bells of gray metal, are attached. Many years ago, in Ar
and Ko-ro-ba, and several of the other northern cities, and common slave livery had been white but diagonally striped, in
one color or another; gradually over the years this style had changed; the standard livery was also, now, commonly, slashed
to the waist; as before, it remained sleeveless; these matters, as generally in the cut of robes and style of tunics, undergo
the transitions of fashion. Assassins of Gor , page 393 The girl turned and faced me suddenly. She wore the briefly skirted gray slave livery of the state slave of Ar,
the gray collar, the slender band of gray metal with its five simple bells locked about her left ankle. I heard the bells
as she moved toward me. In her eyes there were tears. Assassin of Gor, page 405
Slave Cloak "Each of the girls would wear brief silken slave livery, sleeveless,
the disrobing loop on the left shoulder. Elizabeth wore red, Virginia and Phyllis white. Each of the girls was also issued
a light slave cloak, the hem of which fell a bit above the hem of her livery, but which had a hood. Elizabeth's was red with
white stripes, Virginia and Phyllis' white with red stripes. To their consternation, before being permitted to leave the training
room, Virginia and Phyllis, beneath their livery, had locked on their bodies, by Sura, the iron belt." Assassin of Gor P.
214
Slave Livery She wore the briefly skirted, sleeveless slave
livery common in the northern cities of Gor; the livery was yellow and split to the cord that served as her belt; about her
throat she wore a matching collar, yellow enameled over steel. Assassins of Gor, page 7
Ta-teera or Slave Rag A very revealing and exciting slave garment. In some ways similar to the common tunic but little
more than a rag or rags sewn together or tied here and there. There is no way a girl can doubt what she is, a slave, when
she wears the Ta-teera. "A scrap of rag, outrageously brief, so scandalous, so shameful,
fit only for a slave girl." Slave Girl of Gor P.81 "One of the most exciting slave
garments, if a slave is permitted clothing, is the Ta-Teera or, as it is sometimes called, the slave rag. This is analogous
to the tunic, but it is little more, and intentionally so, than a rag or rags. In it the girl is in no doubt as the whether
or not she is a slave. Some cities do not wish girls in Ta-Teeras to be seen publicly on the streets. Some masters put their
girls in such garments only when they are camping, or in the wild. Others, of course, may prescribe the Ta-Teera for their
girls when they are within their own compartments." Guardsman of Gor, page 107
Slave Tunic "The most common Gorean garment for a slave is
a brief slave tunic. This tunic is invariably sleeveless and, usually, has a deep, plunging neckline. It may be of a great
variety of materials, from rich satins and silks to thin, form-revealing, clinging rep-cloth." Guardsman of Gor, page 107 "It was a sleeveless, pullover tunic of brown rep cloth. It was
generously notched on both sides at the hem, which guarantees an additional baring of its occupant's flanks." Magicians of
Gor, page 21
Thrall Tunic "Men in the fields wore short tunics of white wool; some carried
hoes; their hair was close cropped; about their throats had been hammered bands of black iron, with a welded ring attached."
Marauders of Gor, page 82
Work Tunic "I wore a brief, one-piece, brown work tunic. It was all I wore,
with the exception of the collar. We wore such tunics when engaged as work slaves. The tunics of work slaves are usually brown
or gray." Slave Girl of Gor, page 265
