Traditional Dress - Special Occasions - Bridal Outfit

Though it's now common to wear the white wedding gown like in much of the world, the outfits shown here are the traditional wedding garments worn by women-a robe type thing, with the fancy belt and hat. They come in a variety of colors, virtually any one you could imagine, and are often embroidered.




I especially like this orange one. In fact, I think it's my favorite out of all the ones I've seen since I've been here. I took a picture of it also to point something out. The embroidered emblem-NOT the embroidered border along the edges of the robe-you see on the sleeves, the hip, around the knee area, and just outside the breast is very famous. It is the symbol of the sultans.
