The maxtlatl would often be worn under a cloak or cape called tilmahtli{{citation needed|date=August 2012}} {{IPA-nah|tilˈmaʔt͡ɬi|}}; also called tilma in Spanish and English). Various styles of tilmatli existed which served to indicate the status of the wearer.[2] a: young wearing only a maxtlatl; b: common people (Macehualtin) dress; c: noble (Pipiltin) or high ranking warrior dress; d: ruling classes and the clergy; e: less common way to wear the tilmatli; f: war dress.

Women kept their skirt on them with a sash[3] called a cihua necuitlalpiloni {{IPA-nah|ˈsiwa nekʷit͡ɬaɬpilˈu˕ni|}}.[4] In the Classical Nahuatl language, the couplet cuēitl huīpīlli "skirt [and] blouse" was used metaphorically to mean "woman".{{citation needed|date=August 2012}} The Aztecs wore different clothing depending on their age.[8] Children younger than three wore no clothes.[8] From age three and up, girls wore blouses and boys wore capes.[8] From age four and up, girls additionally wore short skirts.[8] From age five and up, the girls' short skirts was replaced with a longer skirts.[8] At age 13, boys finally started wearing loin cloths.[5] Sandals, called cactli {{IPA-nah|ˈkakt͡ɬi|}}, were a sign of status.

The Aztec (women and men) would tend to always decorate themselves with gold bangles, necklaces, chokers, etc. Such jewelry was worn to show how wealthy one was; a poor or unwealthy Aztec would tend to wear less jewelry than an Aztec of higher placing and wealth. The jewelry worn by the Mayan, Aztec, and Inca people was rich in variety and quite beautiful.{{Says who|date=September 2011}} Without metalworking skills, Mayans made jewelry from many other materials. Mayan men wore nose ornaments, earplugs, and lip plugs made of bone, wood, shells, and stones, including jade, topaz, and obsidian. Necklaces, bracelets, anklets, and headgear were made with jaguar and crocodile teeth, jaguar claws, and feathers. Mayan women and children wore less elaborate necklaces and earrings of similar materials. Aztecs and Incas perfected metalworking to a great art. Gold and silver jewelry was worn alongside ornaments made of feathers, shells, leather, and stones. Among the Aztecs, laws about which ornaments could be worn were strictly enforced. Only royalty could wear headdresses with gold and quetzal (a bird with brilliant blue-green feathers that reach three feet in length) feathers, for example. The weaving tradition, so important to Incas, helped create beautiful woven headdresses. Inca emperors wore woven hats trimmed with gold and wool tassels or topped with plumes, or showy feathers. Incas also created elaborate feather decorations for men: headbands made into crowns of feathers, collars around the neck, and chest coverings. In addition, wealthy Inca men wore large gold and silver pendants hung on their chests, disks attached to their hair and shoes, and bands around their arms and wrists. Inca women adorned themselves simply with a metal fastening for their cloak called a tupu. The head of their tupu was decorated with paint or silver, gold, or copper bells. Battle regalia{{Expand section|date=May 2008}}All warriors wore loincloths, and basic military armor called ichcahuipilli. When they were recognized by the state for their bravery in battle, their status increased (regardless of original class) and they were rewarded with shell and glass beaded jewelry. If the warrior was more honored or a higher rank, they would wear battle suits called Tlahuiztli; these suits were distinctively decorated for prestigious warriors and members of warrior societies. They served as a way to identify warriors according to their achievements in battle as well as rank, alliance, and social status like priesthood or nobility. Usually made to work as a single piece of clothing with an opening in the back, they covered the entire torso and most of the extremities of a warrior, and offered added protection to the wearer. The tlahuiztli was made with elements of animal hide, leather, and cotton. Warriors were also allowed to wear sandals as they progressed through the ranks. See also
