2. Traditional Romanian Flared Skirt This traditional skirt is adjustable with strings at the waist, allowing a universal fit. With a length of 60 cm (23.6 inches) and an impressive circumference of 250 cm (99 inches), it creates a voluminous silhouette that sits beautifully on the hips. Historically, women with wider hips were considered most beautiful, so skirts were designed to add volume around the hips, achieved here with a double-folded and sewn waist.
3. Vintage Silk Aprons (Catrinte) A rare and charming pair of hand-embroidered aprons from the Banat region, crafted from vibrant yellow satin and adorned with intricate black, white, and beige embroidery. Each apron has a unique lining: one with a brown canvas, giving it a darker tone, and the other with natural canvas for a lighter effect. Measuring 32 cm x 64 cm (12.6 x 25.2 inches), these aprons are a beautiful addition for collectors and folk art enthusiasts. Carefully hand-washed, they display normal signs of age, a testament to their authenticity and over 50 years of history.
This one-of-a-kind ensemble captures the heritage and beauty of traditional Romanian attire.
