Annotation:

Choudor pattern (according to the registrar). The introduction of “kemzor” and sleeveless jackets are related to the Uzbek influence. In the 1920-1930, a trend appeared to decorate the “kemzor” flaps and side pockets with patterned machine stitching; it was probably borrowed from the Kazakhs and the Qaraqalpaqs, who had used such décor since the 19th century.
