Freshly washed garments.
Contexto cultural
The 'Sunday Best' tradition is still strong. Even in secular families, wearing 'czyste ubranie' for Sunday dinner is a sign of respect for the family unit. In Polish schools, 'strój galowy' (gala outfit) is required for ceremonies. This always implies 'czyste ubranie' in specific colors (white and navy/black). Hospitality involves offering a guest a place to freshen up. If a guest stays overnight unexpectedly, a host will often provide 'czyste ubranie' (like a t-shirt) to sleep in. There is a social stigma against 'chodzenie w brudnym ubraniu' (walking in dirty clothes), which is often associated with social neglect.
The Neuter Rule

Singular vs Plural
