Traditional Karakalpak clothing •
Traditional Karakalpak clothing for men is
formed by a
long sleeved shirt, a waistcoat, and baggy trousers . Women usually wear
long dresses with headscarves. Karakalpak
clothes are usually made of natural materials
such as wool or cotton, and are often decorated
with intricate embroidery. The traditional
clothes are mostly worn only during
celebrations or performances. One can still
sometimes see a Karakalpak man wearing a
large black & very hairy looking hat made
from sheep wool that protects both from heat
and cold.
