The object represents the way the culture holds on to tradition. When a festivity occurs they take out this clothing and wear it. Even though the design may seem simplistic, it provides comfort and warmth during the cold nights. There are a variety of designs and the process to make them as well as the material used leads them to be very expensive. The oldest women of a family often wear the clothes more frequently than others; sometimes leading it to be daily. In contrast to the women, the oldest men start to wear business-casual clothing that they have more frequently.
