A few still make use of native fabrics but the greater part of the cloth, used for clothing, is secured in trade with the Chinese of the coast. Various colors are employed in a single garment - red, blue, andwhite being the favorite colors. These are worked together either in patchwork or embroidery, so as to make realistic or conventional designs, each with its definite name. The women wear little jackets, even when at work, and over these they often throw shoulder clothssimilar to the head coverings of the men. |
