A new shop has opened--Clothing of the World.
Shoe is the one running it! Click on his picture to go to the shop.
Since we got our HA bases I have wanted to have a shop dedicated to clothing from around the world, since I find other cultures' clothing so interesting. These are the first offerings I have:
Serbian
Scottish
Puerto Rican
Middle Eastern and Brazilian (respectively)
Korean
Javanese
Indian
Bulgarian
If you know the proper name for any of these items, let me know. Also, if you have any suggestions for clothes to add to this shop, post a link to a reference image, the culture, what the piece is called, etc :)
Especially if you know a holiday is coming up!! If there's some special clothing worn on a holiday, give me some reference pictures and a month's time heads up and I'll get 'em into the shop in time for the holiday.
Enjoy!

Folk costumes from Krakow, Poland. :3 Poland has a lot of regional ones. I guess red is a popular color internationally. ;p

I'm not sure if I should mail this to you here or if I should post in the comments so I'll do both.
The top outfit for both men and women in traditional Korean clothing is called a jeogori. They are both blouse like but the men's form of this has longer sleeves.
The skirt that the women wear beneath their jeogori is known as a chima and the pants the men wear are known as paji. All together they are known as Hanboks. [Also more commonly referred to by this]
The small bow that lays across the chest of both men and women is known as a Dongchong.
The scarfs that tie the Chima securely into place has no proper names[as of my knowledge] and are known by scarfs.
I hope this helps if someone hasn't said this information already '' :)

Will the existing foreign outfits, Egyptian, Chinese, Japanese and the like, be moved to this shop from Exotic Cloths? It seems like a logical thing to do.
