In the court or full dress, the shoulders, arms, and body, down to the waist, are entirely bare; the drapery descending from the loins downwards, _chelána_, and what may be worn on the head, being the only covering. When a subject, whatever be his rank or family, approaches his prince, he must wear _chelána_ or pantaloons of coloured silk or of fine cotton, without buttons; and instead of the _járit_ or ordinary cloth, he must wear the _dódot_, a cloth which is of nearly double the dimensions. This is put on, however, nearly in the same manner as the _járit_, but so as not to descend on the right side further than just below the knee, while on the left it falls in a rich drapery, until it touches the ground in a point. The _sábuk_ or waistband must be of gold lace, the fringed ends of which usually hang down a few inches, and the party must only wear one _krís_, which is tucked in the waistband on the right side behind, while on the left he wears a weapon, or rather implement, called a _wédung_, in the shape of a chopper, together with a small knife, indicative of his readiness to cut down trees and grass at the order of his sovereign. On his head he must wear a peculiar kind of cap (_kuluk_), said to have been introduced by the Sultan _Pájang_ in imitation of the scull-cap of the Arabs; it is made of cloth, and either white or light blue, stiffened with rich starch: on more ordinary occasions, and generally, except in full dress, the chiefs prefer a cap of the same form made of black velvet, ornamented with gold, and sometimes a diamond on the crown. The part of the body which is left uncovered is generally rubbed over with white or yellow powder. The sovereign himself is usually habited in the same manner on state occasions, his body and arms being covered with a bright yellow powder. When women approach the sovereign, besides having their hair ornamented with diamonds and flowers, they must wear a _sémbong_ or sash round the waist, which generally is of yellow silk with red at the two ends. It is brought once round the body from behind, and the long ends are allowed to descend towards the ground, one over each hip. Since the loss of the _makóta_, or golden crown of _Majapáhit_, which disappeared on the banishment of _Susúnan Mangkúrat_, both the _Susúnan_ and _Sultan_, on public occasions, when they have to meet the European authorities, wear a velvet hat or cap of a particular fashion, somewhat different at each court; that of the _Susúnan_ resembling what is distinguished by the term of the Madúra hat in consequence of its being still worn by the Madúra family, and that of the Sultan having a golden _garúda_ affixed at the back, and two wings of gold extending from behind the ears. They both wear breeches, stockings, and buckles, after the European fashion.
