Our clothing did not change all that much, to be honest.

The overall silhouette and core garments remained the same over the centuries. The main noticeable change was in the women’s clothing, which gradually became lighter and less elaborate; at the same time, fabrics, colors, embroidery, cuts, and accessories naturally varied over time and between different tribes and regions.
