What clothing do people from Mississippi wear?

I don't know how people from other states wear everyday, but in the summer time, most girls were short shorts and t-shirts or tank-tops. Guys where knee high shorts and t-shirts. It gets hot and humid here in the summer (both of which depends on what they are doing that day or their modesty). In the winter, that depends on how cold it is. We have thick and light coats. Most guys and girls wear jeans but there are some who wear khakis and slacks (depending on occupation). To top it all off, we all wear shoes, despite the steortype.
