The clothing culture of the peoples of Central Asia will be presented in an interactive format

🔴 Visitors to the Museum of the Center for Islamic Civilization in Uzbekistan will soon have the opportunity not only to see history but to experience it.

At the latest extended session of the Scientific Council held at the Center for Islamic Civilization in Uzbekistan, Dr. Halida Komilova, Doctor of Art History and Professor, presented specially designed historical costumes currently in development.

These costumes are created for the museum’s “ambassadors of history” or, in modern international terms, the guides who will represent each Renaissance era in the exhibition halls. It was noted that in every section of the museum, guides will appear in distinctive attire. Each costume harmoniously combines elements of national spirit and contemporary design, symbolizing the essence of the First and Second Renaissances, the pre-Islamic era, and the “New Uzbekistan”.

“Every guide is a living messenger of their section’s history and spirit. Through their attire, they must be able to express that history as well”, said Professor Komilova.

The meeting also discussed ways to enhance the Center’s operations and elevate its development through the integration of historical and modern design concepts.

As part of the agenda, a report was presented on the ongoing media project “The Clothing Culture of the Timurid Era” in the “Second Renaissance” section. The project aims to reconstruct the historical garments of Amir Temur and Bibikhonim based on scientific research and bring them to life through modern media technologies.

It was also announced that an upcoming interactive exhibition titled “The Clothing Culture of the Peoples of Central Asia in the Pre-Islamic Period” is being prepared. This exhibition will allow visitors not only to observe history but to feel it.

According to the Center’s Director, Firdavs Abdukhalikov,

“Such projects strengthen the Center’s international reputation and turn it into a true platform for cultural dialogue”.

Dr. Jannat Ismoilova, Professor of History, added:

“Reconstructing historical clothing is not only an art but a science. It reveals the historical meanings hidden behind visual beauty”.
