In this family gathered together – three generations seated side by side – the grandmother preserves the colors and fabrics of traditional dress, the parents blend local patterns with modern cuts, while the youngest wear pieces influenced by Western fashion. A scene that reflects the revival of interest in traditional style and the ongoing dialogue between heritage and modernity.
