Modern Fiji's national dress is the sulu, which resembles a skirt. It is commonly worn by both men and women and it's usually plain grey, blue or brown but... everthing in Fiji could also be "bula" (= with flowers) as in the picture.
Many men, especially in urban areas, wear Sulu and can be tailored as part of their suit. Many will wear a shirt with a western-style collar, tie, and jacket, with a matching Sulu va taga and sandals, this type of sulu can be worn to a semi formal or formal occasion. Even the military uniforms have incorporated the Sulu va taga as part of their ceremonial dress.
