The Mongolian national dress expresses the peculiar features of traditional way of life. The Mongolia dress is most suitable for continental weather with big temperature fluctuations. Depending on the season Mongolians wear different types of deels. In the cold winter Mongolians wear very warm sheepskin deels, in the spring and autumn they wear quilted deels and in the summer light deels.

Mongolian clothes are made of fabric, leather sheepskin and felt. Color is very important in the traditional clothing. Elderly people wear dark colors , while young people wear quite bright color deels which are richly decorated. Dresses of khalkh, buryat , bayad, dorvud, kazakh , uriankhai and other ethnic groups differ in colors, model and decorations used. Women’s clothes differ from the ones for girls : because women are allowed more decorations.
