White linen garments inspired by Ramallah styles were popular, using patchwork and appliqued sequins in addition to embroidery. A key motif was the "nafnuf" design: a floral pattern thought to be inspired by the locally grown orange trees. The "nafnuf" design evolved after World War I into embroidery running down the dress in long panels known as "branches" ("erq"). This "erq" style was the forerunner of the "6 branch" style dresses worn by Palestinian women in different regions today. In the 1920s, a lady from Bethlehem named Maneh Hazbun came to live in Bayt Dajan after her brother bought some orange groves there. She introduced the "rashek" (couching with silk) style of embroidery, a local imitation of the Bethlehem style.
