RE: The days when my hometown celebrates. It’s the most beautiful time of the year!

What a nice festival! Aside from the beautiful roses, it must also smell so nice!
The traditional clothes look so nice too.
Are people still wearing it in everyday life?

I don’t think anyone wears this as an everyday outfit. There are a lot of new clothes though that use some details and artwork from the traditional costumes. I think a lot of people possess at least one traditional costume, though! Thanks for stopping by!

Oh I see, I thought the culture is still alive, I mean in everyday life. But since a lot of people has it, then it really lives on.
I like that new clothes have a bit of culture in them.

Our traditional wear is made of wool generally. That’s because back in the days the wool was the only source that could be used for textile production. And these clothes are a bit harsh and especially in the summer heat not the best thing that you can put on. 😁
This, together with the trends of the different times makes them more a special festive costumes rather than everyday wear.

I see! Wool and summer aren't really the best combination. Only good for cold days. 😅
Makes sense now! Thanks for clarifying and educating me about the traditional clothes. 😁

You’re always welcome!
