If you continue living in Western countries, you are most likely familiar with the main husband and wife at a wedding. The wife wears a white gown and the groom wears a dark suit, with some minor variations that are referred to as extravagant. However, no matter how lavish, they can’t compete with some of the world’s traditional wedding outfits.
Distinct cultures bring with them different ideas, behaviors, and traditions. And clothing is a significant component of tradition. And what better way to get a glimpse of different cultures’ dress than during their weddings
