    Description

    Ethnic Thai Child’s 2 pc. outfit. Condition is "New", never worn.
    Most likely a size 2T or 3T.  "28" is on the label.
    Jacket style top has silver buttons, 11" wide shoulder, 13" body width.  Appliqued along front opening,
    edge of short sleeves and trim around jacket as pictured.  5" slits on either side of jacket
    Shorts have 16" elastic waist, 10" length.
    I bought this when we lived in Thailand in 1970's at the market in Chiang Mai.
    A good example of the handicraft of the Hill Country women, Hmong, Lao, Akha, Lahu, etc.  Their clothing, designs,
    embroidery, show their association with a specific tribe.  Much of this great talent is being lost as the area becomes
    modernized.
    I added a few additional photos from a fantastic book "From The Hands of the Hills" depicting styles of the Hill Tribe people.
    I will combine shipping on my 2 Thai Hill Tribe children’s listings if you're interested.  Please take a look!
