For chinese the woman will wear a red wedding dress with decorations on it, although depending on the wealth of the family the bride may change outfits several times during the day. the men will wear black coat over a black silk robe. Not sure about indian weddings. Others if you looking for malay wedding dress, it would be called songket dress. usually people don't buy this type of dress. They just rent it from a boutique. don't forget Sabah & Sarawak on Borneo... lots of different ethnic entities, lots of colourful traditional costumes and they are very often used as wedding dresses. It gets better: it has become custom here that if one is Christian that you get married at church in traditional western clothes; then you have a reception where you wear your 'tribal' outfit and later you have an evening where you wear western evening gowns etc. Plus, you probably go to a photographer and have wedding pictures taken in a Chinese dress, then in an Indian dress... all very colourful! |
