Ethnic Thai Clothing Two Child’s 2pc Hill Tribe Outfits Vintage

Description

Two Ethnic Thai Childrens' 2 pc. outfits. Condition is "New", never worn.
Most likely a size 2T or 3T.  "28" is on the label of one.
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 jackets
Shorts have 16" elastic waist, 10" length.
I bought these 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.
