Rakvice🇨🇿

Some beautiful Moravian dresses/costumes from Rakvice, a village/municipality in the South East of Czechia🇨🇿. 

This place has wonderfully preserved their beautiful culture.

You will notice with Moravian dresses, women tend to have large, puffy dresses with their distinctive huge, wide skirts and abundant petticoats underneath.

In many regions in South Moravia, men's costumes typically include a long white embellished ribbon with a decorated cockade on the right side of their vests as you can see above.

I managed to find some older photos from 1959 too❤️

A traditional dress/costume in Czech & Slovak is called a "Kroj" (pronounced like kroi). I love how highly and beautifully embellished each garment is from here❤️

Redraw of an old idea I had, the gaang if they were Bulgarian/South Slavic.

Aang is inspired by shepherd's clothing mostly as well as some North- and Central- West Bulgarian clothing. Same for Sokka, but mostly CW (from the Shop region). Katara is a mix of Rhodope mountain and again CW styles. The butterflies are just so they don't stare in empty space lol

『 Istrski poljub - Istrian kiss 』

Croatian and Slovenian Istrian girls kissing in an old coastal town

The Croatian girl (left) is wearing folk clothes from southern Istria. The Slovenian girl (right) is wearing folk clothes from the Trieste region. The town I used as a reference was a photo I took in Piran a couple of months ago - I guess they met halfway between eachother!

The Kurpianki from Kurpie Zielone have their Kurpie Białe counterparts

Just found this picture on Pinterest. I cannot believe how beautiful it is, oh how much I wish I had the same kroj, cuz if I'd own a one like that I'd never wear anything else.

Just look at it!!! TAK KRÁSNÝ JÁ TOMU NEMŮŽU UVĚŘIT.

More of these works I've done for the museum. They were done in 2022 and 2023 but I delayed posting them because I thought they were maybe hard to understand for foreigners. After all they do require lots of context but so as not to spam you all I'm open to answer questions, do enjoy the art regardless!

Traditional Serbian folk dress.

[mikeytymian]

Tiché jsou vlny, temný vod klín,

vše lazurným se pláštěm krylo;

nad vodou se bílých skví šatů stín,

a krajina kolem šepce: „Jarmilo!“

V hlubinách vody: „Jarmilo! Jarmilo!!“
