Lebanese Christians should return to this aesthetic, the wannabe French thing is not convincing.

I know that most Lebanese Christians are mostly native levantines and not Bedouin. I grew up near Dearborn. I've been to Lebanon. I lived in Jordan. I know the difference between the two groups. What I mean is a general return to traditional attire. It's not that deep.

@sharghzadeh Such attire isn't practical for day-to-day activities in this modern world.

@sharghzadeh I noticed a lot of Lebanese and Arab Christians using western versions of Christian names instead of the Arabic versions. John and Peter for example

@sharghzadeh But Lebanese Christians are indigenous to the Levant, not Arabs/Beoduins. That couple is Jordanian, and even most Jordanian Christians are not Bedouin either. There used to be a very tiny Christian Bedouin minority in Jordan, but they got assimilated within the bigger Levantine…

@sharghzadeh They'll only embrace their arab roots once we rise above the west. The weak always mimicks the strong

@sharghzadeh Apparently it used to be a Levantine thing that you could tell what village women came from because their veils had specific patterns.

@sharghzadeh All middle eastern western wannabes are annoying. What gets under my skin is in their heads they think they have become better than the traditional ones.

@sharghzadeh Except you know that bedouins have their own subculture that isn't exactly representative of most Lebanese Christians right?

@sharghzadeh These are Bedouin. Why should non-Bedouin Lebanese people dress like Arabian nomads? Why don't Londoners today dress like these Romani people?

@sharghzadeh The actual Lebanese traditional clothing are these below or some variants depending on communities Anything else,like the one you posted,is probably pertaining to minorities that lived or live in Lebanon: Armenians/Assyrians/Greeks/Arabs/Turks...+those who got influenced by them

@sharghzadeh The problem is that Lebanese don't dress like that since it's not the traditional wear. We have other clothing which many people are unaware of. Jubbe, Labbade, Shirwal, Qamis, Mesheye, and so on.
