People are increasingly emphasizing their individual style through clothing, introducing elements of national flavor in casual outfits in Kazakhstan, The Astan Times writes, citing Khabar TV channel.

Local designers are creating modern chapans (a traditional gown), trendy camisoles (a traditional styled jacket), and national embroidered takiya (skullcap hat) that have become popular among girls and women, The Astana Times writes, adding that these clothes have become a practical and fashionable wardrobe item that look great and can be worn in everyday life.

Kazakh traditional patterns on clothes are even gaining popularity abroad, it adds. According to media manager Arman Davletyarov, today “it is fashionable to be a Kazakh.” “There are so many different models of the chapan today. First and foremost, it is Kazakh culture and heritage. This is a manifestation of patriotism, love for our roots and nationality and it is just beautiful and stylish,” Davletyarov wrote on his Instagram page on April 2, launching a flash mob to promote Kazakh culture.
