Naga traditional attire

Naga traditional attire varies among the numerous Naga tribes, but it generally features handcrafted garments made from natural materials like cotton, wool, and animal hides. Men often wear woven loincloths, bead necklaces, and feathered headgear, while women typically don woven skirts, blouses, and intricate jewelry. Beadwork, body painting, and distinctive accessories play a significant role, reflecting cultural identity, social status, and local symbolism. The attire is usually colorful, adorned with motifs and patterns unique to each tribe, and is worn during festivals, rituals, and important ceremonies to celebrate heritage and communal bonds.
