Pink HillTribe Dress - Child

This dress is made by the Karens, pronounced (Ka-rans), who are an indigenous people to the southeast Asian countries of Thailand and Burma.

The name ‘Karen’ has become almost synonymous with ‘Weaver’, so outstanding are the products of Karen looms. Their unusual embroidery and needle work make for widely varied types of clothing. Often the specific pattern reflect specific groups and families coming under the general heading of ‘Karen’. Almost like a Coat-of-Arms.

Originally all clothing was made of home spun cotton cloth. Even now many mountain-dwelling Karen still spin thread from their own cotton. Weaving is done on simple back-strap looms using a single warp technique.

This dress is sized for children based on age.
Ages 1-8 years are available.
