Traditional Romanian Men’s Shirt with Handcrafted Silk Embroidery from Transylvania

This exceptional vintage Romanian men’s shirt showcases exquisite hand-embroidered white silk designs from the Transylvanian region of Banat. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, the embroidery stands out beautifully against an ivory, pale cream fabric—a delicate, lightweight canvas typical of traditional Transylvanian garments.

The intricate handmade embroidery adorns the chest and cuffs, complemented by original vintage buttons along the chest closure.

This piece is available in sizes XS-S for men and also works beautifully as a dress for women in size M. The shirt’s dimensions are as follows:
