Each dress, especially the skirt, shows the talent and sophistication of the weaver. Not only that, people can look at the pattern and color of the skirt to know which Thai group the wearer belongs to. Photo: Ho Phuong |

With the skirts of women of the Thai Tay Muong ethnic group (also known as the White Thai), the skirt and the body of the skirt are often separated into two distinct parts. The skirts of women of this Thai ethnic group have many unique motifs and vivid images such as: the sun, trees, animals... (In the photo, the skirts of women of the Thai Tay Muong ethnic group).

The skirts of Thai Tay Thanh women are often attached to the body of the skirt (some people also call it a skirt without a skirt). However, overall, the skirt of Thai Thanh people still has two very clear parts. The skirts of Thai Thanh women are often simpler, with darker tones than Thai Tay Muong women.

In the past, Thai women had to make their own clothes, but today, dresses are sold in markets and shopping malls. Currently, in mountainous districts such as Ky Son, Tuong Duong, and Que Phong, there are weaving groups to create Thai dresses. Photo: Ho Phuong |
