Women's German Alpine Beauty Fancy Dress Costume

Product Information

Led by Silvia Sommerlath (later Queen Silvia of Sweden), the hostesses wore sky-blue dirndls as a promotion of Bavarian identity. A developing consensus is that a dirndl can be described as "tracht" when it has been traditionally worn by a distinct people group over a long period.

It serves practical and traditional purposes, making it a symbol of Alpine heritage for special occasions or everyday wear. Public events featuring folk costume include the Val Gardena folklore festival (" Gröden in Tracht") and the Country Wedding in Kastelruth. A dirndl consists of a close-fitting bodice with a low neckline, a blouse worn under the bodice, a wide high-waisted skirt and an apron.As antithesis to the dominance of French fashion, in the early 19th century a movement to study and preserve the traditional costumes of the rural populations developed in many European countries. The folk costume movement is one aspect of national romanticism, and part of the more widespread Romantic movement of the early 19th century. The Swiss refer to an Austrian or German traditional dress as a dirndl, but refer to their own traditional dress [98] as a tracht.
