Women folk costume

The women's folk costume consists of the head covering called by different names, such as: cloth, vail or headscarf. We have then a traditional cotton blouse called ”ie”, a traditional  skirt, an  apron, a coat, a breastplate  and, last but not least, a belt and a band with the colors from the Romanian flag-red, yellow and blue..

All the components of the folk costume were   woven inside the Romanian households by women and were made from from natural fibers, especially hemp, cotton and wool.

The embroidery part was hand-sewn and decorated with floral, zoomorphic and geometric decorative motifs (" the fir tree", "the tree of life", "the peacock", "the pigeon", "the hen" ,,,the rooster ","the  crow ",,, the horn of the ram ”etc.

The traditional blouse ,the ”ia”  was like a mirror of the one who created and wore it. It is admirable that each girl wove her own dowry, including the clothes she and the groom would wear on the wedding day.

The outside garment is worn over the ”ie”, it is tight on the body and closed in front with stitches or buttons.. It is made of goat or lamb skin, with wool inside and is decorated with red flowers (buds, roses).

The apron (apron) is indispensable in the traditional costume being worn in front, over the white linen skirt. The apron can be black or red, the red one was worn by the bride and her friends the night before the wedding.

The coat, unlike the apron, in antiquity, was worn only from a certain age, corresponding to today's adulthood. It is made of woolen fabric, with woolen tinsel, arnica, silk or "wire".

In our region the traditional folk costume is made in black and white, with small exceptions of red and yellow components, worn at certain events, unlike other areas where it is is brightly colored (Oltenia, Banat, Bistrita, Moldova).

The shoes  black shoes or leather boots.

Men folk costume

Men's clothing consists of a hat, a shirt, a traditional wide belt, traditonal linen trousers, breastplate, a traditional fur vest and leather shoes or  boots.

The hat is black, with small edges and it is worn in less cool seasons and on holidays. As signs of young boys the hat is adorned with flowers, beans and feathers, arranged on the right side. In winter, they wear a lamb-skin hat.

The shirt, knee-length in the past and shorter in more recent times (20th century), is worn over the traditional trousers and  the traditional belt. Around the neck this shirt has sawn traditional motifs and it is a pride to wear and presume for all kinds of occasions in the local festivities.

The men's shirt is made of hemp cloth or white cotton cloth, discreetly decorated with motifs that use a low color register, which also gives it elegance and sobriety.

The "Sunday" shirt ,the one used for really special occasions, was made of cotton cloth, with a "skirt" wrinkled at the back and a richer ornamentation than the one used for the everyday activities. In the upper part of the shirt, the initials of the wearer's name were embroidered in a stylized form.

The linen trousers are made of white linen for the cold seasons and of cotton in the warm seasons and are tight on the leg. On the body, these trousers are enriched by the wide belt..

The chest has the same cuts and ornamentation as the female ones.

The fur coat is a type of traditional winter coat. It is made of sheepskin, with wool inside.

So It is difficult to talk about one single costume. Maybe we could imagine a costume made of parts from those countries' costumes.
