What are the main folk dance costumes in Cambodia?

The costumes and props of folk dance are simple and simple. Although daily utensils are the main props, they are skillfully used in dances, such as fish dance, coconut shell dance, peacock dance, wooden pestle dance and bamboo board dance. At the beginning of the fishing dance, performers were dressed in Cambodian national costumes, and a group of young men and women were carrying fishing nets. Men are holding fishing props and there is a fishing net on the stage. Men have been following women with fishing props. The whole dance only used simple props such as fishing nets and screens, and performed a very interesting folk dance. Another example is the coconut shell dance, which is to perform with two and a half coconut shells in both hands. Throughout the dance, coconut shells were used as props and accompaniment instruments.

Cambodia's clothing is influenced by the living environment and climate, and its form is relatively simple. Men like to wear "sarong", usually at home, not on formal occasions. The color is mainly black, and the skirt worn by women in the lower half is called "loose cloth", which is basically the same as that of men, except that there are more colors. Because of the weather, people like to wear more casual and comfortable clothes, and many folk dance costumes are ordinary Cambodian folk costumes. For example, the simple clothes in Wang Nan dance are usually worn at home. When couples dance Wang Nan, they basically swing their arms back and forth, left and right to drive their bodies forward, and the dance range is not large, which is related to Cambodia's clothing and climate. In addition, the arm dance has changed a lot, the head naturally tilts with the body, the dance is elegant and soft, and the two people cooperate well, which is not unrelated to the harmony of religious beliefs in Cambodia.
