short description
The Gallong were also the weaving traditions passed to their generations; this is indeed a sub-tribe of Adi community in Arunchal Pradesh. One of their distinctive dresses is an off-white woven skirt or wrapper, including a maroon border that is obviously an important item in traditional attire of Gallong women.
This textile piece is done with handlooms, which makes it an integral part of Gallong heritage. In fact, the whole off-white base color is meant for pure and simple aspects, while the maroon border indicates strength along with the cultural pride. This is usually of woven skirt for wrapping around the waist, then the rest of the clothing is worn with it-the most important aspect in both everyday and ceremonial dressing.
Every Gallong woman is proud of her inheritance weaving skills. Each piece is therefore woven with unique precision and care. These skirts find popularity in festivals, community events, and special occasions bringing cultural identity and practice. Even in the modern age, the Gallong tribe continues with their legacy of knitting heritage. The tribes now have ongoing initiatives to improve and preserve their textiles to larger markets.
