What Volga Tatar Women Wore in the 19th Century

@vbirchwoodAbout
I'm a daily wearer of historical clothing and a Volga Tatar. I’m also passionate about experimental archaeology. I enjoy glimpsing firsthand into what it may have been like for people in the past, applied in a modern context by exploring historical fashion and hand sewing, and how we can interact with the world in a more compassionate, sustainable, and connected way. For business inquiries please contact: [email protected] For my own everyday clothing, I wear Ancient Greek, Medieval, Renaissance, Prehistoric and other eras, as well as incorporating more of my Indigenous (Turkic) dress. All the garments I make for myself are 100% hand-stitched and are slow to construct! I feel this is a wonderful way to connect with the process of sewing and show the durability of hand-sewn garments. This is a welcoming space for all genders, sexualities, ethnicities, and any other marginalised groups. My account is supervised by the Dutch Media Authority.

This was an incredibly fun video to put together, and I hope that it will help to preserve this information for future generations of Volga Tatars. 🕯 Support my art on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/vbirchwood ✨ Leave a donation: https://ko-fi.com/vbirchwood 🪡 Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/vasibirchwood/ 📖 Business inquiries - [email protected] Further Reading: -K.
