Mongolian designers re-introducing traditional attires
Going back to traditional roots seems to be the norm these days as more and more people from different nationalities and communities are constantly trying to adopt their long forgotten age old customs and dressing styles into their everyday lives.
Inspired from this recent interest in reviving anything that belongs to the bygone era, Mongolian designers are trying to bring back the nation’s ethnically diverse fabric designs and decorations into modern day attires.
Be it the different shapes of hats or the stitching styles of robes and images on ribbons, the designers from varied Mongolian tribes are making clothes that resonate with the distinctive cultures of their respective ethnic groups.
In their effort to make the elaborate costumes more appealing to the urban crowd, the designers are also infusing modern variations, such as the size of the heavy floor length skirts are being cut short and blouses without sleeves have been introduced to make them more comfortable and easy to wear.
Apart from Mongolia, the irresistible charm of the colourful conventional costumes has also taken the international runways by storm.
Recently at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Tokyo 2013, the Mongolian born young fashion talent Ariunaa Suri garnered a lot of appreciation from the fashion media for her eclectic Spring/Summer 2014 collection, which was a fusion of traditional Mongolian designs and modern day styles.
Mongolia is a land-locked country in East and Central Asia. It borders Russia to the north and China to the south, east and west.
