45 mins confidence: 
way/style of dressing Explanation: "Modus" means way, mode, style. "Duendi" may be derived from the root form of the more common verb "induo", which means clothe, put on clothing (in English we have the technical word indumentum which comes from this root). I do not know the exact context in which this appears, but from your description it would seem to fit. I hope this helps. |
