Caption: Date: 1969 Location: Sahartara, Dolpa Description: Paljum (on the left) and her mother, demonstrating the change in women's fashions. The color designs of the skirts are different, the mother's being considered old-fashioned. The mother's patuka (waist sash) is also much longer than her daughter's. The daughter's solid-gold earrings are considerably larger than those of her mother, because she has been able to amass more gold for the larger size.
