Samoan Wedding Dresses

Brides from Samoa make their traditional wedding gowns using tapa cloth, which they obtain from the barks of mulberries.




Some Samoan brides may make their wedding gowns out of siapo, which is a cloth they make out of hardwood barks; this fabric is important especially during wedding ceremonies where the culture demands that the bride should put on a wedding dress made of this fabric.
