Clothing is, and always has been, a distinctive aspect of the culture of the Dene, the Athapaskan-speaking peoples of Canada's Northwest Territories. The skill and artistry embodied in many of the oldest garments testify to a tradition that was already ancient when Europeans first penetrated North America's western subarctic regions.
These early garments were produced by a people for whom mere survival in a harsh northern environment must often have been a challenge, yet who found the time and creative energy to make clothing that was not only highly functional, but beautiful as well. The arrival of foreigners in Dene territory in the late eighteenth century and the involvement of the indigenous people in the European fur trade initiated a period of rapid cultural and historical change. Fashions in dress and adornment reflected Native people's exposure to foreign technologies, goods, and styles. Yet beneath the outward changes in materials, forms, and design lie continuities in function, technology, and aesthetics.

Now really, what kind of dumb question is that !?!?
What is the national costume of The U.S. ???
But to give you an answer, Canadians wear winter clothing about 6 months out of the year.
Again....what a silly silly question.
