What are the characteristics of Mongolian costumes?

Mongolians have their own traditional costumes, namely, robes with right lapels, high collars, long sleeves, fat edges and no slits at the hem. Usually, I often wear cloth clothes. On New Year's Day or festive days, I usually wear satin clothes with brocade edges. They like to use contrasting colors such as red, green and blue.

Both men and women like to wear bright belts, which are also important accessories for the upper body. Men usually wear Mongolian knives on both sides of their belts and hang a string of fire sickles and snuff bottles. Men and women love to wear high boots, and pastoral areas like to wear fragrant cattle boots and high-waisted riding boots. Although I don't wear boots in rural areas at ordinary times, I still have the habit of wearing boots with various patterns embroidered on the surface and waist on New Year's Day.

Dress culture

Wearing a Mongolian robe is a very serious matter. Dressing neatly is a kind of respect for yourself and others. When wearing robes, you must wear boots and a hat. Especially when offering sacrifices, you must match robes, boots and hats to appear overall coordination and seriousness.

When drinking tea and toasting, you can't open your sleeves, bare your chest and neck, and you can't sweep pots and pans at the edge of your robe. When packing and storing robes, the front should face up and the clothes of the deceased should face down. The collar is in the northwest, not the door. When sewing robes, it is forbidden to leave stitches.
