ceremony and has been incorporated into many Mongolian plays. Mongolian contortionism
represents emotions, mythology, and metaphors through the abstract gestures of body
movements.

compensate the simple, ascetic nomadic lifestyle. Deel or a long textile gown forms the
basis of almost all Mongolian clothes. The complete Mongolian traditional clothes
include a hat, shoes and accessories. Traditional woman costume is very bright and
lavishly decorated. In recent years, modernized and westernized Mongolian Deel is really
popular for special occasion and everyday clothes. Most of the clothes in this show are
modernized Mongolian Deel.
