When a Taupou (a High Chief's daughter) or a Manaia (a High Chief's son) performs a Samoan dance, they wear traditional attire, using fine mats or tapa, and wearing head gear denoting the fact that they are a daughter or son of a high chief. Our formal wear to any formal function is a Puletasi (for ladies) and Alo'a and Iefaitaga (for gents). For a lady or a gentleman to wear a puletasi and alo'a/iefaitaga to any formal function, is a mark of respect shown to the guests at whatever event they attend, and the respect accorded them by those guests.
