Every element of our modern clothing has its own history. Clothing Slavic differs significantly from the traditional costumes of other ethnic groups on a number of grounds. Let's talk more about what the traditions of the Slavic costume and what a view it had several centuries ago.
Originally the cut of the costumes of the Slavs was very simple and uncomplicated. The reason was the remote location from the trade routes, and the absence of most of the population cash to buy expensive Oriental fabrics and ornaments. In addition, a simple clothing Slavic was because the manufacture of material required complex and laborious work. In addition, the material is not very attractive and aesthetics.
Later, namely in the period between the heyday of the Roman era and the end of paganism in the garb of Slavs appeared variety. Most of the elements of the wardrobe, of course, was borrowed from other cultures.
Many centuries ago, were especially popular skins of slain beasts, as the cold climate assumed warm clothes. Then gradually began to appear other sorts of warm clothes, but natural fur has always had a special love. Fur learned to sew warm clothes even in large sizes, and the skin was manufactured and used for making shoes, waist belts, gloves and so on. Skin products usually take tanned or rawhide.
There are Also plenty of archaeological evidence that the Slavic clothes were made mostly from flax, hemp cloth, wool. That is, all the things is made exclusively from natural raw materials. Since the majority of used linen, as a result, the garments were white and sometimes gray. Equally popular was and wool fabrics (police, cloth, sack-cloth).

Slavic Male clothing consists of several main parts: shirt, pants, and also the top apparel in the form of a coat or Suite. The shirt was tunic-like appearance and long, straight sleeves. The wrist sleeve is usually contracted wide braid, and on his chest adorned with an embroidered insert. Be sure the shirt has tie belt. Pants were narrow and at length reached the ankles. In another they are called socks. Definitely pants girded by a string or something similar on the belt.
As for the upper clothes, over trousers and a shirt during the cold season wore Zupan, cover, carsno. There could be two options: either cut or no cut, but at the top with buttons (buttonholes). If the first option you can wear as a coat and fasten, the second – only through the head. These outerwear usually podevalis fur, and later a fur garment already had a foreign name "coat". Latest garment – Slavic, not foreign, because many people mistakenly think that the appearance of the coats we owe to the southern peoples.
Belt for men are usually made of different material and just tied at the waist. If the belt was leather, it was attended by a buckle made of metal, at least – plaques and tips. Fasteners on shirts and upper garments had as ribbon and buttons. Latter often made of bronze, bone or wood.
We should also describe the Slavic shoes, which also differed from all other neighbouring nationalities. The most common type of footwear was boots, which in those days was called solo. If the clothes Slavonic were made from various materials, for shoes, mostly used skin. Heel absent. The shoes were created in two ways: from a single piece of leather or from two panels, respectively, for upper and sole. Some shoes are provided for the lacing. Some historians believe that the ancient Slavs shoes in bast sandals kind sandals. The boots were pointy and soft.
The dress of the Slav also includes the main element of the wardrobe of those times – a long shirt. Unlike men, women Slavic clothing had colorful embroidery with the addition of various decorations. As for the hats, then in fashion was headlamp halos and headbands decorated with different beautiful plates, ornaments and so on. Later on the territory of today's Russia popular headdress. For fastening women's garments used radiation fibulae.
For ladies top Slavic clothing, photos of which are available in the article, was a coat or poneva. Later poneva called an apron, worn over a shirt.
From the jewellery gives a special flavor to the image added temporal rings. This spiral ring is worn at the temples. Also women love massive necklaces of beads. Mostly it was a blue beads, sometimes green, made of glass. Very rare necklace in dark blue with yellow, white and red inclusions. Supplemented the female outfit with rings, bracelets, but these ornaments were found much less frequently.
The Children far away from parents and dressed in a long shirt. The boys, like their fathers, wore the shirt and trousers, and girls more long shirts. So Slavic children's clothing is almost similar to the adult, with some exceptions. Mother-Slav tried to decorate a kids outfit. For example, the hem of her shirt, sleeves, collar decorated oberezhnye embroidery. Girls often hair plaited wire rings and to the headdress was added to the suspension in the form of bells. Historians believe that these bells helped parents to look after their child.
Children's shoes slightly differ from the adult counterparts. The main difference is that, shoes had wide toes and provided a big lift. On some models, dated ornaments. For this purpose, the skin was done inserts and notches, and through them is passed through colored threads for decoration.
According to fashion experts, the modern Slavic clothing is not what reflects the style of the past. Today Slavs dressed in new, fashionable things that are very far in their cut, style and color solutions.
Recently, However, some designers turn to historical facts and use Slavic motives in their collections. So, often there are shirts and tunics with Slavic ornaments. In a dress slip long dresses, sewn in the manner of long shirts with heavy embroidery and local style. Even children's things are often found embroidery, which previously had a deep significance – they were considered a talisman. Among young people and the older generation is now fashionable to dress in Slavic clothing in order to get closer to the moral wisdom of their ancestors and to pay homage to native traditions.
