The New Valdres Bunad

This bunad was inspired by the embroidery on an old bonnet and
was first worn in 1948. The skirt, bodice, bonnet and reticule are in
black or blue wool with embroidery. There is also a cape or jacket
in the same material. The shirt, which is based on models from
Valdres Folkemuseum, can be either linen or cotton, with white
work or coloured embroidery. The underskirt is in cotton with a
pleated flounce at the bottom. Black stockings and bunad shoes
complete the costume.
