Children's and adult men's traditional garments are almost identical in design, the only difference is in size, however, the women's traditional garments are quite different in style. Mongolian traditional garments have a well-thought-out design, so there is almost no material left after felting, simple yet effective. Depending on the person's height, 4-6 meters of silk will be used to make traditional garments with 80-90 cm wide silk. In the case of traditional garments l with a circular pattern, more silk is used because the pattern needs to match. In the summer, Mongolians usually wear single-layered or double-layered traditional garments, in the spring and autumn, traditional garments with cotton or lamb wool lining, and in the winter, sheep wool traditional garments.
