National Theatre Brno

DRESSED IN TRADITION
Folk attire from the regions that captivated Leoš Janáček. This unique fashion show introduces the folk costumes whose authentic forms Janáček himself would have encountered in specific areas. Through a journey across the regions that sparked his interest in folklore, we will explore the diverse types and functions of these costumes—for women, men, and children; for summer and winter; and for ceremonies, holidays, and work. Expert commentary will accompany the presentation, while the atmosphere will be enhanced by the music of a cimbalom ensemble.
