TROUSER SHAPES OF ASIA MINOR.
- Turkish men’s trousers made of cloth with a lace-up hem of calico and cord trim (black sarawoje). Balkan slant type.
- Pair of Armenian women’s trousers in striped half silk. Caucasus.
- Persian men’s trousers with linen hem.
- Trousers of a Kurdish leader made of dark blue cloth with trimming of red and gold cords. The cord hem is made of salmon-coloured silk and embroidered with yellow silk cord. The light blue drawstring, like all these cords, is made of crocheted cotton cord that can be pulled apart like a net; to make it fit better, it is weighted with stones at the bottom inside.
