National Clothing Day is a special day dedicated to promoting the traditions, history, and cultural heritage of our people. In recent years, this day has been widely celebrated in Kazakhstan. It is usually held in the run-up to or as part of the Nowruz celebrations.
On this day, people wear Kazakh national costumes as a sign of respect for the traditions of their ancestors. Men typically wear a shapan, kamzol, kalpak, tebetei, malaqai, while women adorn themselves with kamzol, saukele, dresses, bracelets, sholpy, and other national accessories. Special national costumes are also made for children, creating a festive atmosphere.
National clothing is not just a fashion, but a cultural heritage that reflects the history and essence of the people. Each ornament, fabric, and form of the costume carries its own meaning. For example, the ram's horn ornament symbolizes wealth and abundance, while the sun motif represents light and life.
National Clothing Day is celebrated with festive events in various educational institutions, cultural centers, and organizations. During the event, exhibitions of national costumes, fashion shows, and demonstrations of applied arts by craftsmen are held.
This day serves as an important occasion for young people to understand the value of national heritage and receive spiritual education. It also contributes to the preservation and development of our national identity
