TRADITIONAL DRESS

Traditional dress may be defined as the ensemble of garments, jewelry, and accessories rooted in the past that is worn by an identifiable group of people. Though slight changes over time in color, form, and material are acknowledged, the assemblage seems to be handed down unchanged from the past. Traditional dress or costume is a phrase used widely both by the general public and writers on dress. It conjures up images of rural people dressed in colorful, layered, exotic clothing from an idealized past in some faraway place. This notion of traditional dress has been scrutinized and found inadequate by many researchers and scholars, but its uncritical use continues into the twenty-first century. The phrase traditional dress or costume is often used interchangeably with the terms ethnic, regional, and folk dress. For a concise discussion of this terminology see Welters and for a fascinating look at how the term is used try a Web search on the words "traditional costume."

Tradition, according to The Word Power Dictionary, is a custom, or belief handed down from the past, especially by practice. Clothing, Word Power defines as ‘articles of dress or apparel’. The marriage of tradition to clothing results in cultural and historical encapsulation in dress. Clothing, dress, garments, apparel – so many words for the coverings we wrap around our bodies. What is clothing, that indispensible article of human life? According to the World Book Encyclopedia, Vol. 4, clothing includes garments, accessories and ornaments, and evolved around 100,000 years ago. From the earliest times, early humans used clothing to look better, cover themselves from the elements, and establish identity. The earliest clothing was probably animal skin, used for warmth, and wearing the skin of a ferocious predator, could have been used as a signal of the hunting prowess of the wearer.
