The tapa is decorated with traditional patterns of black, brown and white symbolizing the region or part of Fiji where the tapa was made from (Namuka I Lau). Some of the more rare tapas are painted with different shades of soil and clay.
The costumes are 3-tiered and made up of a single piece around the waist, another single piece around the mid-section and a plain sash around the chest.
