Bhutanese men have neither buttons nor pockets on their clothes. Where do they put their things when they go out?

Although Budan's clothes have no buttons or pockets, because the waist is fixed with a belt, in fact, there are many things in the clothes. Moreover, Bhutan's clothing actually feels a bit like China Hanfu, because in Bhutan's religion, the state religion is Lamaism, and Lamaism is the religion of Tibet, and Tibetan clothing is often called Tibetan clothing.

In fact, it was improved on the basis of China Hanfu, and Bhutan's clothing was influenced by Tibetan clothing, so in fact, Bhutan's clothing was indirectly influenced by Hanfu, so some characteristics of Hanfu were also reflected in Bhutan's clothing, such as wearing a belt.

Men's wear in Bhutan usually has a white jacket inside, the sleeves are generally longer than the outer robe, and then the long part is folded outward to cover the cuffs of the whole outer robe, so it is very free and easy. Moreover, the width of the sleeves is moderate, not as wide as that of the costumes of the Han Dynasty, so that the normal work of Bhutanese men will not be affected. Moreover, men's clothes have no buttons, and the robes outside are crossed, and then they are fixed with belts to form a large storage space on the chest, which can hold many things.

Improper matching of women's upper body is actually similar to that of men's wear, except that the clothes inside have no color requirements for men's wear, and the lower body is fixed with a long skirt and then fixed with a belt. And this kind of dress of women is also called "flag-raising". In fact, this kind of clothing looks and feels very much like our Fengxian Xiao clothing.

In Bhutan, both men and women have hard and fast dress codes, which is to maintain Bhutan's traditional culture. Basically, all Bhutanese need to wear traditional clothes for school and work, including daily life. King Bhutan is a model, and basically all activities are dressed in traditional costumes.
