Tawlhloh Puan

Product Specifications

• Type: Tawlhloh Puan (Traditional Mizo Puan) (Wrap-around Skirt).

• Design: This is a minimalist or modern variation of the traditional Puan. It features a solid black base with a striking vertical band (intended to be worn at the side or front) consisting of red and white stripes.

• Material: Typically hand-woven from high-quality cotton or a cotton-silk blend, which is standard for Zonunsang’s premium handloom products.

• Craftsmanship: Hand-woven (Kut Tah) by local Mizo weavers, ensuring a unique texture and durability that mass-produced fabrics lack.

Style & Usage

• Occasion: While traditional Puans like the Puanchei are reserved for weddings and major festivals (like Chapchar Kut), this specific minimalist design is versatile. It is suitable for formal gatherings, church services, or cultural events where a sophisticated yet traditional look is desired.

• Pairing: It is traditionally paired with a Kawrchei (hand-woven blouse) or a simple contemporary top to highlight the clean lines of the Puan.
