China: Tibetans in the fields during harvest time near Zhongdian, Yunnan Province. Tibetans in Zhongdian have their own costume which differs from Central Tibet's. The women wear a long, side-fastened tunic over trousers, a white apron in front and a pleated half-skirt in back. In colder weather they wear woollen coats or capes. In all seasons they braid their hair and wrap it in head scarves or under a cap with wool fringe that frames their faces. Men wear a floppy woollen coat, high boots, a wide leather belt with lots of little studs and pockets, plus a dagger dangling on the side.
