National costumes express identity and usually relate to a particular geographic area as well as a period of time. They also indicate social, marital and/or religious status. Here are some interesting ones from Afghanistan, Tibet and India, some are of nomadic origin while others are area specific. The hand-spun and woven silks, cottons and wools are fine examples of ethnic textile design and construction.
