Have you ever wondered what kind of attire and jewellery people of Ladakh wear? How do they look, what are they made of or called? So, if you are piqued of these secrets, this is the right place to begin scratching your curiosity. Attires and ornaments speak volumes about the geographical, cultural and traditional peculiarities of a community. And, Ladakh is no different; the snow-capped mountains, treacherous terrains and cold deserts hint at freezing winters with temperatures often touching minus 30°C.
The traditional livestock rearing has enabled people of Ladakh to protect themselves and their loved ones from harsh winters. The sheep, goats and yaks not only provide for their food but also clothing. People weave high quality thermals, shawls, caps and socks from the wool and pashmina produce. In fact, the woollen clothes and pashmina shawls of Ladakh are famed across the world for their uniqueness of warmth, suppleness and feel-on-the-skin of the wearer.
Ladakh has been a cosmopolitan region, since its Silk Route days. Consequently, we have a blend of dresses, attires, beauty gears from different communities and tribes. To have a sneak peek at them, follow us through the post.

Speaking of attires of Ladakh, people wear a thick woollen robe called Goncha (the traditional gown) with accessories such as Tipi (hat), Lokpa (a thick cloak worn by only women that provides extra warmth), Bok, shawl or Tsa-zar for men. Goncha or Kos or Sulma are the main dress worn by all the communities in Ladakh by both the sexes, accompanied with a colourful sash tied around their waist. The women’s robe, however, flares downwards with small pleats accentuating it into a flowy gown.
