Bulgarian Clothing
Bulgarian traditional clothing
Many different costumes can be found within this relatively small country. Different regions have different traditional clothing.
Men’s trousers can be white or black. They are worn with a white shirt , a wide, brightly colored sash, a hat made of black lambskin, leg wraps or knitted socks, and leather peasant sandals, or more commonly today, shoes.
The main categories of woman’s dress found in Bulgaria today are the single or double aproncostume, the closed tunic costume and the open tunic. All three types of costumes comprise a chemise, apron or a tunic and apron, a headdress, a belt, knitted socks and often a waistcoat or overcoat.
