Folk traditions and history of costumes

singasPosted for Everyone to comment on, 3 years ago2 min read

Have a nice day! Today we will go to the exhibition of folk costumes of our warm region. You will see a lot of interesting outfits and jewelry :-)

The national costumes reflect all the milestones of the formation of the people, the outfits are not just things or pieces of good cloth, but a real monument to the original past.

The clothing of the Kuban Cossacks was always distinguished by the bright colors of the women's costume and wide men's trousers. It seems to me that familiarity with the ancient clothing of any nation is a great opportunity to understand its culture.

It is good when today many people honor folk traditions and even sometimes are ready to flaunt in such a suit :-)

On the chest of this Circassian sewed the lining to Hazira or hairnice. The word "gazyr" in translation means "ready".

The presence of it on the clothes of a warrior spoke of readiness to engage in battle with the enemy. Although the gaskets were needed to store cartridges, which could be quickly obtained at any time. However, over time, they lost their true purpose and became a characteristic decoration of the national costume of the highlanders, as well as a thin, leather with silver overlays set belt.

And at weddings, many brides are happy to put on such national outfits.

They are created almost by hand, and how original they are embroidered and decorated. Embroidery is simply jewelry, each line is in its place.

By the way, folk costume is one of the oldest and most popular types of folk decorative and applied art, it has a wealth of forms of expression, breadth and depth of cultural and artistic ties.

Please note that even with dolls, the masters try to observe all the canons of traditions and culture of a particular people.

In general, the history of the costume keeps different nuances and surprises...

And at the end, as always, there will be flowers.
