Chukcha women’s winter overall

Eastern Siberia, Chukotka Peninsula, Anadyr Okrug
Mid 20th century

Many northern peoples had a fur twinset, but only chukchas wore it as an independent piece. In winter chukcha women put on a double-sided twinset - with furry side in and out. When migrating during the winter season, they put on a fur kukhlyanka (men's and women's wear of peoples in the northeasten Siberia)
