Of the four presented here, it is the most recent. The apron crept into use after WWI, as the boucle embroidery technique attests, but the depiction and embroidered inscription "ЈУГОСЛОВЕНСКИ ГРБ” (Yugoslav coat of arms) implies that this apron is from the 1929 at the earliest.https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/matejevacka-nosnja-2.pngMatejevacka Nosnja 2Girls' costume from Gornji Matejevac. The kerchief is contemporary, with floral motifs, but the blouse is older, bearing geometric motifs more typical of Central Balkan costume.https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/niskobanjska-nosnja-1.pngNiskobanjska Nosnja 1Niškobanjska nošnja - the type of costume worn by young women in Niška Banja, a small town east of Niš. The vistan skirt is particularly densely decorated, and the pregljača is my favourite of the Niš aprons in my collection, due to the depiction of large dahlias, or georgine as they are called in Serbian. The vest bears the Serbian coat of arms and dates back to the early 20th century.https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/niskobanjska-nosnja-2.pngNiskobanjska Nosnja 2https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/cetiri-pregljace-niske.pngCetiri Pregljace Niskehttps://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/matejevacki-detalji.pngMatejevacki detaljiDetails of the Matejevac costumes.2019-07-22T00:01:21+00:00monthlyhttps://svilenkonac.net/2019/06/27/k%d0%be%d1%81%d0%be%d0%b2%d0%ba%d0%b0-%d0%b4%d0%b5%d0%b2%d0%be%d1%98%d0%ba%d0%b0-the-kosovo-maiden/https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/kosovka-devojka-reconstruction.pngKosovka Devojka Reconstructionhttps://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/fullsizeoutput_1cb7.jpegfullsizeoutput_1cb7https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/fullsizeoutput_1cb5.jpegfullsizeoutput_1cb5Click to enlargehttps://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/fullsizeoutput_1cb3.jpegfullsizeoutput_1cb3https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/fullsizeoutput_1cb1.jpegfullsizeoutput_1cb1https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/fullsizeoutput_1ca9.jpegfullsizeoutput_1ca9https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/fullsizeoutput_1cab.jpegfullsizeoutput_1cabhttps://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/fullsizeoutput_1c9f.jpegfullsizeoutput_1c9fhttps://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/dsc_0386.jpgDSC_0386https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/06/dsc_0381.jpgDSC_03812019-06-28T00:51:16+00:00monthlyhttps://svilenkonac.net/2017/12/28/%d0%b2%d0%bb%d0%b0%d1%81%d0%b8%d0%bd%d0%b0-%d0%b8-%d0%ba%d1%80%d0%b0%d1%98%d0%b8%d1%88%d1%82%d0%b5-vlasina-and-krajiste/https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/20171226_110057.jpg20171226_110057https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/vlasinke11.jpgVlasinke1Women's costume of Vlasina and Krajište, L to R: Three variants of costume as exhibited in the Ethnographic Museum of Belgrade - saja, manovil, litak (1986); photo of a girl in Bosilegrad Krajište, c. 1930; Costume from Kriva Feja, EMB (2011); Postcard from pre-WWI period Serbia.https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/vlasinakrajiste11.jpgVlasinaKrajiste11https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/vlasinakrajiste10.jpgVlasinaKrajiste10https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/vlasinakrajiste9.jpgVlasinaKrajiste9https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/vlasinakrajiste8.jpgVlasinaKrajiste8https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/vlasinakrajiste7.jpgVlasinaKrajiste7https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/vlasinakrajiste6.jpgVlasinaKrajiste6https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/vlasinakrajiste5.jpgVlasinaKrajiste5https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/vlasinakrajiste4.jpgVlasinaKrajiste42019-05-22T18:17:09+00:00monthlyhttps://svilenkonac.net/2016/04/19/%d0%b3%d1%80%d0%b0%d0%b4%d1%81%d0%ba%d0%b5-%d0%bd%d0%be%d1%88%d1%9a%d0%b5-%d1%98%d1%83%d0%b3%d0%b0-southern-urban-costume/https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/19019772478_fc826c2500_k-e1461088656586.jpg19019772478_fc826c2500_khttps://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/14718886064_59945c9267_k.jpg14718886064_59945c9267_khttps://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/14534586450_b553f0f06a_k.jpg14534586450_b553f0f06a_khttps://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/d19fd183d0b1d0b521.jpgџубе2https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/d19fd183d0b1d0b511.jpgџубе1https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/dzube-1-2.jpgDZUBE - 1 (2)https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/dzubecollage2.jpgDzubeCollage2https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/dzubecollage1.jpgDzubeCollage1https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/mintan11.jpgMintan1https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/salta2.jpgSalta22019-02-01T00:20:21+00:00monthlyhttps://svilenkonac.net/2019/01/08/%d1%82%d1%80%d0%b0%d0%b2%d0%bd%d0%b8%d0%ba-travnik/https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/screen-shot-2019-01-08-at-9.59.56-pm.pngTravnicki KatoliciIllustration by Helena Volfart-Kojović showing the costume worn by by Catholics in Travnik during the 19th cenutry and early 20th. While the men's costume has negligible differences, the woman's costume is distinctive. It include an interesting mix of elements: from the heavy woollen apron and zubun vest typical of DInaric costume; a sleeved bodice which, in both material and ornamentation, has decidedly levantine influences; and a cap that is very similar to that worn by Vlach women.

It is a complete festive costume from Staro Nagoričane. It is from the interwar period, as evidenced by the floral embroidery and certain industrial trims that appear on the garments. The kerchief is trimmed with hand crocheted picot lace, krme, and the skutača is a deep brown base with multicoloured and metallic threads interwoven.https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/kumanovo-st-nag-details.jpgKumanovo St Nag. DetailsDetails of the costume from Staro Nagoričane.https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/zubunce-details.jpgZubunce DetailsDetails of the back panels of four light cotton vests called zubunče (pl. zubunčeta). This is part of the beauty of regional costume - the slight variations, each a creative expression of its maker, while conforming to age-old traditions of arrangement.https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/kumanovo-romanovce.jpgKumanovo RomanovceYoung woman's costume from Romanovce village near Kumanovo. Notice that the skutača, while still colourful and elaborate, is simpler in terms of number of interwoven designs. They are larger, and of a limited palette, but still very striking.https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/kumanovo-kriva-reka.jpgKumanovo Kriva RekaThe Kriva Reka variant of the Kumanovo district costume is certainly the older and more elaborate costume, both in terms of number of layered garments and their intricate construction and ornamentation. It is the type illustrated by Vera Kličkova in prior images. This one is a composite costume, with most pieces coming from the village of Psača, and a few from Stracin.https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/kumanovo-kriva-reka-details.jpgKumanovo Kriva Reka DetailsDetails of the Kriva Reka style costume from Psača and Stracin. The oldest element is the klašenik vest.https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/kumanovo-dejlovce.jpgKumanovo DejlovceA composite costume, from pieces of the Šop variant costume. It is more recent than the others, from the time in or around WWII. This can be traced to the boucle embroidery on the back as well as the commercially printed kerchief imported from Turkey. The floral skutača is distinctive for the foothill villages of Kumanovo "Šop" district.https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/kumanovo-orasac.jpgKumanovo OrasacCostume from the village of Orašac near Kumanovo. The skutača is a beautiful wine-coloured bordeaux with predominantly green and white geometric patterns. The short vest is newer than the dress and skutača, from the 1950s.https://svilenkonac.net/wp-content/uploads/2018/12/kumanovo-celopek.jpgKumanovo CelopekYoung woman's costume from Čelopek, near Staro Nagoričane. The village had, until the Bulgarian occupation, a četnik (guerilla fighters') ossuary from the Serbo-Turkish wars. The dress is certainly very old, judging from the high collar, and the skutača is my favourite one, for its riot of colours.
