Romanian woman Ortansa Pascariu is the proud owner of a very unusual piece of wardrobe—a vest made of her own hair! Ortansa had been collecting fallen strands of her hair for 20 years, and when she thought she had enough, she decided to use it for a unique garment.

来自罗马尼亚的奥尔坦萨帕斯卡留女士很是自豪，因为她拥有一件非同寻常的衣服——一件由她自己的头发制成的背心！奥尔坦萨收集掉落的头发已经20年了。当她觉得头发足够时，便决定用自己的头发做一件独一无二的衣服。

The 65-year-old revealed that she started collecting her hair in accordance with a tradition followed in her hometown of Stauceni, in the north-eastern part of Romania. The practice suggests that women should never throw away their hair if they want to retain their beauty and good luck.

奥尔坦萨今年65岁，来自罗马尼亚东北部小镇斯特乌切尼。她说收集头发是她家乡的一项传统：如果女性想要保持美丽和好运，就绝对不能扔掉脱落的头发。

I heard from elderly friends that women should not throw their lost hair away after combing, she said. They need to keep it. If not, the elderly say, it is as if you are throwing away your beauty. I started gathering my hair when I was 40 and by the age of 60 I had managed to gather one kilo, which was as much as I needed for a vest.

“我从年长的朋友那里听说，梳头后，女性不能扔掉脱落的头发，”奥尔坦萨说，“女人得留着头发。他们说，如果女人把头发扔了，这就等于抛弃了自己的美丽。我从40岁开始收集我的头发，到我60岁的时候，这些头发已经有1公斤重了，足够我做一件背心。”
