Women's traditional costumes are among the most remarkable works of Bulgarian folk arts. In the mind of the Bulgarian people, clothing is not only an element of life but also an inseparable part of one's identity. This book consists of 17 beautiful color plates illustrating some of the folk costumes of Bulgaria, generally from the 19th century, along with a short essay on women's traditional garb.
