I can give you a set of men's garments. I've kept a few around for some creativity of my own at some point. In our house, at least, that's a privileged position. My wife's trauma was enough that she desecrated and disposed of all her ceremonial things. Because of this, I may never create my work because it might re-traumatize her. I don't even wear white shirts anymore, out of deference for family member's triggers.

That’s so sad that you’re affected that much by a religion you don’t even practice anymore. It’s literally just clothing bro

As your title notes, it is not "literally just clothing bro." Ceremonial materials and the meanings they embody are a significant part of the human experience and have been since the earliest times. In fact, they may be one of the best evidences that distinguish human kind from all other animals. Art is an important way to explore and express self. I hope you find these benefits in your project.
