So what is chapan? In the past, it was considered a part of an exclusively male wardrobe, but in the modern world, women did not deprive him of their attention. Outwardly, it is a simple cut robe with straight sleeves, without buttons or fasteners. However, there are two straps in the chest area that can be used to tie a chapan. There are vertical cuts on the sides of the thighs so as not to hinder movement when walking. The dressing gown is cut with an overlap, thanks to which the chapan will protect its owner from the piercing wind. For warmth, they usually use a lining made of cotton wool or camel hair. The entire chapan fabric is hand-stitched, so it is considered a very painstaking job to sew it.
Chapans in Uzbekistan are worn, which says: «And in a feast, and in peace, and in good people.» For everyday life, products are chosen from a simpler fabric - velor or cotton adras, and the lining buy is made of chintz. In this form, you can sit in your yard without fear of freezing.
But festive chapans deserve special attention. They are sewn from the most beautiful silk adras or from a chic iridescent alo-bakhmal (Uzbek velvet), the lining is also selected with taste from a beautiful fabric. The edges are decorated with hand-woven braid with silk tassels. Chapans decorated with hand-made embroidery from gold threads are considered especially chic. This is a traditional gift for the most distinguished and honorable guests.
