Unique Coorg Costume Styles: A Blend of Tradition and Functionality
The unique Coorg costume styles reflect the region’s diverse cultural influences and practical needs. The Kodava saree worn by women is one example, where the draping style allows for ease of movement in the hilly terrain of Coorg. Men’s costumes often feature the Kupya and Pudi (a short robe and waistcloth) that offer comfort while also symbolizing the warrior tradition. These costumes are often paired with traditional jewelry and accessories that showcase the community’s craftsmanship. Guests at The River Homestay can immerse themselves in Coorg costume styles by joining in local festivals or cultural performances, allowing them to experience these distinctive attire styles firsthand.
