It is only natural that one would be surprised to hear such a thing. This time, such an incident really happened. This time the clothing is made of fish skin! Such an amazing incident happened in Tangjiang city of Heilongjiang, China bordering Russia. The people of Hazen community there make clothes from fish skin. However, recently the people of this community have reduced the production of clothes according to media reports.
According to a report in the media, people of Hazen community live in Tangjiang city of Heilongjiang, China, bordering Russia.
When the Japanese occupied Manchuria in the 30s and 40s of the last century, many of the community were killed. Because of this, the Hazen community had a population of only about 300 people after World War II. However, now it has increased to about 5 thousand. A village of Hazens is also seen in the picture.
How is this dress made? It is known that first the skin of the fish is dried. It is then softened and made into clothes. They take about a month. Stitching takes another 20 days.
The youth of the Hazen community are not very keen on making clothes out of fish skin. Also in the Hazen culture, fish skin is not used much for making everyday clothing.
As the Hazen youth lacked interest, Wenfeng taught local Han Chinese women the technique of making fish skin clothing. This is how the people of this community are trying to maintain the tradition.
Fashion brands like Dior, Prada have occasionally introduced fish skin clothing. However, it has not yet been commercially successful.
