In 1935, Padaung women traveled to London to showcase their unique culture and traditions. One of the most remarkable images of this visit is a photo of the women playing cards in a hotel. The Padaung people, also known as the “Giraffe Women”, are a minority ethnic group from Myanmar. The women are known for wearing distinctive brass coils around their necks, which give them a distinctively elongated appearance. This is an amazing example of how cultures can come together and how a group of women can be so proud of their culture in such an unfamiliar place.
