As a general statement, most of us have some varying level of knowledge about the traditional wear of our own cultures, as well as about a few more commonly-known ones (e.g.: Japanese kimonos), but don’t typically know much about the dress of the majority of cultures in the world. Below are images showing examples of select cultural wear from every country in the world.
Note: I don’t necessarily know much about all of these countries and their dress; there’s also a very limited amount of information and images for certain regions that may be inaccurate. I did my best to research and represent traditional dress to the best of my abilities, but some are more accurate than others. Please let me know if you notice anything that could be fixed.
