Buying Longyi in Myanmar - where, how much, tailoring options

Buying longyi in Myanmar turned out to be a little more complicated than I first expected. Let me show you the different options available to you and how much you can expect to pay for fabrics and tailoring.
Longyi are traditional fabrics worn on the lower half of the body in Myanmar. They are worn by both men and women, and make a very practical souvenir.
If you're looking for culturally appropriate clothing that you can wear at temples and places of religious worship, I highly recommend picking up a longyi, which you can find at basically any market.

It’s not called longyi for women it’s called tamaen

[@chongus1497]

VLOG TUBE they're the same. Tamaen is for women and pa soe is for men but they can both be called longyi in general.
