Ruža Begovac ; Pécs, Hungary

Abstract

The author describes the national costume of the Croats in the most southern district of Hungary. The national costume of the Croats of Baranja has become renowned due to a richness in the embroidery and a diversity of textile patterns. From the middle of the past century men gradually gave up their traditional national costume, while factory-made textiles slowly became dominant in the women's costume. The author describes the materials of national costumes, the way in which they are made, their styling, manner of decoration etc.
