- Short gamantangs with heavier decor than normal
- Long sashes for male dancers
- Long scarves for female dancers

Movements
Sarhhtha is stylized by dramatic and sharp movements that are paired with poise, grace, precision with an aesthetic flow. Examples of commonly used movements:
- Twirling, spinning, and circle patterns often used with scarves and sashes.
- Sinuous body movements that utilize amazing control over the body and often include arcing circular movements.
- Sharp gestures with the body that require lower body strength, but give the illusion of being performed with great ease.
- Staccato stomping and clapping to create aesthetically pleasing waves across the flowing fabric of the short gamantangs used.
