They have a variety of functions. They serve as a mark of respect, serve to identify communities or organizations, and guard the wearer's head. The custom of wearing a headdress is closely linked to native culture and heritage, as well as the communities that follow it. There are several hill tribes and clans in India, and each has its own unique fashion sense and headgear-wearing customs. Each state in India has its own unique headgear worn by its residents. Indian Topis or hats may vary in shape and style from state to state and from community to community, but they provide wearers a distinct identity and emphasize their cultural ethos.<br><br>The Jaapi or Japi, a traditional hat from Assam:<br>The tokou paat (Trachycarpus martianus), a large palm leaf, and bamboo or cane are tightly braided to create the jaapi or japi, a traditional conical hat from Assam, India.

Rajasthanis wear turbans known as pagaris or safas. The most striking aspect of Rajasthani turbans is their range of beautiful hues that will appeal to your heart and thoughts. They will never fail to catch your attention with the desert serving as a backdrop. Another fascinating truth is that each hue of the turban stands for a different meaning. For instance, saffron is favoured for weddings and other auspicious occasions, whereas ochre is the hue of the mendicant. The colour saffron is often associated with bravery and wisdom.<br><br></p><span></div><a href='#'><div><img height='400px' width='auto;' class='img_dynaPost' src='/BlitzMobiImages/consumers/company551995499/mediafiles/PHfJDPZx90.tmp'/></div></a><div style=' background:#FFFFFF;color:#000000;font-size:15px;font-family:Verdana;width:auto;padding:5px;max-height:100%;'><span><p>3)The Traditional Mysori Turban, or Peta,<br>It is one of the traditional headgears of South India used in the state of Karnataka, mainly in the Mysore and Kodgu area.
