Yes they are very dressed up in this video. When we have been there they do have traditional Shan dress but not so fancy.

I love this video. It's so daft when they sit around the table in national dress with the french guy looking slightly uncomfortable :-)

In case you haven't guessed, it's the equivalent of a bunch of scotsman in full kilt and sporran - ie the Shan usually reserve this stuff for weddings and other official ceremony things.

I'm about an eighth Shan. Or something like that.
