Some of Litang’s most opulent ceremonial costumes. Metal - i.e. silver or gold - is very important in Litang ceremonial costumes - Litang women wear the ‘headphones’-like ornaments, which don’t fall off as they are attached to a strap that goes across the head. Some women wear up to 30 extremely ornate plate sized ornaments all over their bodies - see other photos on this board for different views. // Litang Horse festival circa 2007 -- source link
