Thank you for this tutorial. It was easy to follow. I needed guidance because the buckles on my daughter's sinh no longer aligned properly because she has grown older. My husband was deployed to Laos a few years ago, and he bought sinh and matching blouses for my daughters and me. They will be wearing their sinh tomorrow for their Christmas photos.
This makes me so happy to read and what a beautiful idea for Christmas photos!! Please share pics if you post any! I would love to see how you did. Happy Holidays!
This is so interesting!! My aunt is from Laos, and while I don't get to see her very often, I want to learn more about her culture, and one of my favorite things to see while learning about cultures is clothing. The Pah Bieng is so unique - at least from my experience/background, - and beautiful! My first thought seeing it though was how the heck do you wear it without it falling off so this video was perfect to find. Fashion throughout the world is so cool
Thank you for this, I was not raised Lao and this will be my first year celebrating Pi Mai including wearing a traditional outfit. It is so nice to have these cultural resources when I don’t have family to help me with these things.
Thank you for making this video! So helpful in keeping our traditions alive. I follow you on all your social media outlets. Appreciate all your posts ❤️
Trust me, from this guy's point of view, don't ever lose your tradition from both your culture nor dress. The exotic nature of both is simply jaw dropping. :)
I'm completely new to your channel and I'm really glad I found it. I'm half Lao but my dad was born in Pakse and then came here to the US as a kid. He's very big on making sure me and my siblings embrace our culture. This video makes me so happy to watch, I love seeing the beauty in where my family is from, it really makes me proud to be Lao. (Also, your sinh is beautiful I love the color)
From this man's point of view, there is nothing more beautiful than a lady in a colorful silk Sinh in Lao, or the same of a pha nung in Thai mostly worn in the Udan (North) region of Thailand. I truly love how these cultures have retained traditional dress for parades, weddings and major celebrations and even for casual wear in public! It's awe inspiring and beautifully feminine unlike Western woman's dress by far! Jaw dropping beauty. American ladies dress does not even begin to compare.
Thai silk is beautiful too! My mom has collected so many pieces for me from her travels to Laos. Thank you for the comment and glad you enjoyed the video 😊
@@HouseofXTia It's always memorable to have such nice things from a parent especially from a cultural point of view. I admire the patterns in the silk and think of how much time goes into making a piece which to me adds to its remarkable beauty. Thai and Laos woman are all just very exotic in their beauty and most are so pleasant to be with which makes them all a gem. They just give me that zen calm and their silk dresses makes me weak in the knees. Love your content.
@@HouseofXTia HA...........well, nothing wrong with that. Those that know Thai and Lao woman get some fire when challenged. They are like a cuisine: nice smelling, tasty and pleasant to look at yet filled with sugar, spice and in some dishes, fiery hot like a fresh Bird's Eye pepper that stings if you touch your eye after cutting it. (note to self, remember that one as that was pretty good. lol) Ask him if he agrees.
Wow ladies, great tips!! Such lovely color sinhs and sash! Great tips for the next time I’m going to give Alms at the temple. My Sinh will be on point.
Hi even we wear this kind of traditional dress sash we use to call 'pha maih' and the botton wear we use to call 'shinn'🥰 i am from India,Arunachal pradesh and i belong to Tai khampti community.love and best wishes.
Hi! It’s pretty much the same. You will need to line up the seam to identify front and back before putting it on and then pin both sides of hip to secure it the best you can :)
Not sure where to purchase in the US but you can try asking your local Thai/Lao market. They typically will know people who are selling clothing/furnishings
I almost forgot to ask something. If this is traditional clothing, I would assume this shit dates back before safety pins were a thing. How the hell did they hook this all up without safety pins? She put about 20 on you House of Safety Pins.

I'm glad you enjoyed the video and learned something! Totally agree about fashion around the world, so neat and beautiful!
Thank you! I just purchased a sinh and was clueless as to how to put it on. This makes it simple.
You’re welcome!
I love this! Thank you for making it! I really appreciate the Lao American perspective.

my husband laughed as I quoted "pleasant to be with". I'm def a rare fragile like a bomb--not a flower, ones. lol.

Great information you ladies shared!
thank you doll :)
Thank you for this video! I was getting so upset with my pah bieng!
haha! I know the feeling. with practice you'll be able to tie it on your own in no time :)
Hi even we wear this kind of traditional dress sash we use to call 'pha maih' and the botton wear we use to call 'shinn'🥰 i am from India,Arunachal pradesh and i belong to Tai khampti community.love and best wishes.
So interesting. Thanks for sharing!!
Is there any website I can go on to order so Lao clothes?
not that i know of babe
Can you show what type of material is suitable for everyday wear vs party vs bride/wedding?
everyday wear would be cloth-like material (not the silk), I don't have any of those pieces as I do not wear this unless there is an occasion.
So are the wrapped skirts more everyday casual wear?
The ones shown are more formal. Everyday casual wear is typically a cotton skirt with similar prints, no sash.
Any helpful tips if you are doing it alone?

i loves you for your crazy comments. i don't know what they used back then but since we have access to safety pins, we'll just work with that lol
@@HouseofXTia lol alrighty then. You looked good.
@@qweretyuiopas We have pins from ancient time. They are different from this type of pins and people no longer use them.
Bahllaaa!
lol
Where do you guys order your sinh?
my mom gets it from Laos :)
ສະບາຍດີ ງາມຫຼາຍ
Big Plus ຂອບໃຈ 🙏
thank you!
I cant find one at all😥
all of my fabrics came from Laos. looks like you may need to take a trip!
does anybody know if these are synthetic or woven ?
I have no idea!
Most likely woven
Usually silk
The difficult part is doing it on your own
definitely takes practice
