A glimpse from the past: Palestinian embroidery Art

in #fashion7 years ago (edited)


Let’s take a look at one of the old beautiful art that existed in Palestine and other countries around: Those traditional dresses still around these days with a modern touch sometimes.   


The following images were taken between 1880s and 1940s, which interesting to explore and extract new modern ideas.   


This dress was commonly used in Ramallah 


  And this one for a young child from Bethlehem    




  From Jerusalem in 1880s      





  Hebron      


  Bethlehem again  



  And then Al Ramleh    



Southern coast 



And some Headdresses







 

Hope you enjoyed this journey ;)
