Despite the fact that fashion is not standing in place, and it is almost impossible to distinguish the Europeans from the Asian on clothes, the national costume remains pride and the property of each people, and the traditions associated with its manufacture are transmitted from the older generation younger.
History
Tatar costume is a very general concept that unites national clothing of different subgroups of Tatars, including the Crimean. Much attention to the appearance of the costume was the Volga Tatars, as well as oriental traditions and religion.
The appearance of the costume was very strongly influenced by the nomadic lifestyle of the Tatars. The clothes are thought out in such a way that it was convenient to ride the top, it was not cold in winter and not hot in summer. She had to be easy and beautiful. For sewing, fur, genuine leather, camel or boring felt and cloth were used.
Today, national costume will rarely meet on the streets of Tatarstan. Most often it can be seen as a dance or scenic dress.
Peculiarities
The Tatar national costume, besides the fact that it consists of a shirt, swinging bathrobes and sharovar, has another feature: it sews in a rather limited color scheme. Basically, it is cherry, blue, white, yellow and green.
For the outfit, headdress and shoes are characterized by plenty of decor. Usually, it is an embroidery with golden threads, beads, coins. The traditional ornament for embroidery is vegetable.
Varieties
Male and female national costume appearance differ little from each other. The main element of the costume is a wide tunic shubach with side wedges and a deep neckline on the chest. The Kazan Tatars have a cutout replaced rack collar. The shirt was quite long, wide and rushed without a belt. The female tunic used to be even longer - approximately before the ankle.
The shirt could be woolen, cotton, silk or even a brocade. For her decoration, colored ribbons were used, gilded braid, thin lace, beads, etc. Under the female shirt, the breaststore (Cook or Teshldrek), which closes the neckline on the chest was obliged. Sharovary sewed from a rough linen fabric: for women from a monophonic material, for men - from striped.
Outerwear, worn on a shirt, was necessarily swinging. It has a slightly fitted silhouette, side wedges and smelled to the right side. The obligatory element for the outerwear was a knitted or textile belt.
Female suit was different from male only long and decor - it was decorated with fur, embroidery, appliqués, etc. On top of the shirt, women put on camoles (bathrobes, swinging blouses) long before the knee or middle of the hips. Camzole could have sleeves or be without them. Hem, sleeves and prugis were decorated with braid, feathers, coins, etc.
Hemp and sleeves of tunics were decorated with large swans. A large number of decorations were used: earrings, rings, rings, monistoes, suspension, etc. Sleeveless, worn over the shirt, sewed from the velvet and decorated with fur or golden braid.
Male headdress consisted of two parts: lower and top. The bottom or homely belt was a tubeette, on which the felt cap (Kalpak), a fur hat or chalma was put on top. Calpac - a cone-shaped hat sometimes with curved fields. Such a hat was carried by aristocrats, decorating her velvet or atlas outside, and the inner part was lined with white soft felt. Bright, multicolored tubetes were intended for young people, middle and elderly tatars were worn by monophonic models.
Woman's headdress pointed to her marital status. Young girls wore a similar textile or fur hat "Takiya" or "Burek", which was decorated with embroidery and decor from beads, silver, corals. The head of married women decorated a completely different headdress, which consisted of three parts. The lower part was intended for fastening the hair (women wore 2 braids), then wore bedspread and, finally, the bandage, hoop, handkerchief, or cap fixing the bedspread.
As a national shoe, the Tatars used boots (chittech or Ichigi). Casual models were black, festive shoes were decorated with an ornament in mosaic technique. A peculiar variety of Russian flashers (chabats) was used as working shoes.

Children's clothing was almost the same and did not share clothes for girls and boys. The only difference was the color scheme. A suit for girls sewed in bright, multicolored colors: red, green, blue. The suit for the boy was performed in more restrained shades of blue or black. With the growth of the child, the national costume was gradually modified: jewelry was added, hats, shoes changed.
