Thinking of an element that is able to represent New Zealand
(Why New Zealanders prefer dark colour -BLACK)
Our reasons for wearing black appear obvious. It's practical, sensible and hides the dirt. It's timeless, stylish and safe. But black's popularity in New Zealand, the book explains, goes back to our colonial days when settlers escaped the class system in Britain, where black was the colour of status, which was not attainable to everybody.
"Black was embraced by those who could afford it to demonstrate that they had done well in the colony," says de Pont. "People who hadn't done quite as well wore fabrics that were more natural fabrics, like canvas in white and grey colours. Black was a more expensive cloth and harder to launder."
Black was the colour of Maori ta moko and woven attire, and signified the void from which the world began.
