The typical women\u2019s traditional costume in this area is dark red. The fabric is a solid texture so that when worn, it looks very dapper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The dress is adorned with black unicolor velvet strips down to the bottom. On front, it is decorated with black velvet and white oje (trimming), which is embroidered or crocheted to adorn the look of the dress. It has a small black velvet collar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One essential element is the xibuna (sort of long jelek) which comes in a thick fabric of felt or cashmere made in some equipment or as otherwise called on the loom. The xibuna features front gold strings with simple motifs. Further below it boasts all around a red tertir (a type of lace) running wider to the hem, otherwise called veref, which makes it rather graceful when wearing the costume in full.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The apron (m\u00ebsalla) is mostly black or dark red with black tertir decorations. Its fabric is cashmere and is made on the loom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The gajtan (decorative purl pattern) runs over the apron from the waistline up and is finely pinned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The sash is embellished with a combination of black and gold and is worn over the apron. It is likewise made from thick and solid texture fabric and is made on the loom. Long ago, the sash had some metal parts, in the form of two buckled fibulas (pafta).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Another prominent element is the scarf. Predominantly black, it comes in multiple floral patterns with stitched or crocheted fringes all around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Socks come in black woolen material ending in white and slightly light-blue motifs, with embroidered rhombic-shaped figures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shoes are typically black and low heel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The above elements altogether, make up the traditional costume of Dardha (dardhare) woman.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
