Old clothes

Drawing from the Old Photos I

Collecting Old Indonesia photos from internet, I found some Acehnese photo. It is interesting to observe how past people dressed. Here I redraw from some photo I found. Note: I reinterpreted the color, the original photos in black and white.

 

This is the very young gayo brides, regardless of his young age marriage, the dress is beautiful, lot of jewelry she wore, the coin necklace is one of highlight. Check the original picture here 

 

These are two kids of Acehnese nobleman, Panglima Tibang. The Pattern on the boy's dress is unique, while the trouser's of the girls was cool, maybe it can be some idea for today fashion. Check the original photo here

This one is photo of bride and groom. I think there is some dutch influence in the way the bride where her veil. And the motif of the fabric they used are very beautiful, the veil have paisley motif, it may come from faraway, India may be. It is possible because in the past Aceh is in one of biggest port city where goods from around the world passed by. Check original photo here

I like the original photo of this drawing, ordinary people dressed in front of the empty old road setting. What were they thinking while a stranger took photo of them, anxious, worry, ah.. Talking about the way the woman dressed I remembered india sari. and the man he wear a cutbray trouser..
