Oriental Turkish Dancer Costume with Vest and Turban
History and Usage of Oriental Garments
This striking costume draws inspiration from the traditional fashion of the Ottoman Empire and the Middle East from the 16th to the 19th century. The baggy trousers, also known as harem pants or sirwal, were commonly worn by both men and women in this region, providing essential breathability and comfort in the hot desert climate. During the 18th and 19th centuries, a wave of so-called Turquerie swept through the European nobility, making dressing in oriental attire highly fashionable. Therefore, the costume is absolutely ideal for portraying oriental characters at LARPs, for dancers, theatrical performances, or historical festivals. Please note that the metal bracelet and other accessories shown in the photographs are not included.

Costume Care and Safety
The satin gives the garment a beautiful shine, and the cotton ensures durability. To ensure this luxurious garment serves you for as long as possible, we highly recommend you care for it with the utmost caution. Due to the sensitive sequins and braids, it is recommended that the garment be washed exclusively by hand at a temperature up to 30 °C. The turban with the ostrich feather must not be washed or soaked. More details can be found in the cleaning and maintenance instructions. For safety reasons, never approach an open flame while wearing this loose garment, as flowing fabrics and synthetic blends are highly flammable!
Recommended Accessories
For the perfect portrayal of an 18th-century oriental warrior or dancer, we strongly recommend you complement this attire with a traditional curved sabre and period leather sandals. A wide oriental belt worn over the belly will also be an excellent match, highlighting your prosperous appearance.
