The Lukhum hats which actually represent their typicality from the state of Mizoram. It is a mixture of pure culture and deep-rooted functionality. The hat is made from paper and fine woven bamboo strips. This indicates an eco-friendly approach to traditional attire. It perfectly is meant with a dome-shaped crown that sits directly onto the head, while its oval-shaped brim gives it the protection that adds an extra touch of elegance.
What makes the Lukhum different is that it has a construction that is delicate yet durable. The outer surface has been woven skillfully with thin bamboo strips to lend the hat a texture that is refined. The rim has been plaited tightly with a length of bamboo, which makes it stronger and adds visual appeal. The fusion of paper and bamboo would reflect the wise usage of natural materials that the tribe proves, to be very much rooted in sustainable living. It is traditionally worn during cultural ceremonies, agricultural work, and tribal festivities but also speaks of ethnic pride and identity. The clear and simple design and the organic materials in it coincide with the values the Mizo people uphold as regards nature and ancestry.
