Red sarafan

Folk dances and songs come into the lives of women once and stay with them for life. To learn a new number and perform it in public, group members need a custom-made Russian folk dress or purchase one from the professional workshop at the Kadril company.

What performances is this dress suitable for?

The Russian folk dress shown in the photo illustration is suitable for both dance groups and singers. The dress features a fitted bodice and a wide, flared sun skirt. It is complemented by graceful, shortened puff sleeves. The knee-length skirt allows for even the most daring leg movements without worrying about tearing the fabric. This Russian folk dress looks especially beautiful when performing gyrations, as the flared sun skirt, when unfolded, reveals the beautiful pattern of the two fabrics joined at the bottom. A tight-fitting bodice and sleeves with fixed hems prevent the dress from shifting during dancing. For groups performing traditional songs, a Russian folk-style dress is also an ideal choice. The color scheme of the dress will highlight the unique beauty of Russian girls performing on large stages. This is especially true for lyrics narrated by very young girls who sing about love or the beauty of nature.

Materials Used

Two types of suiting fabrics, each with a different color scheme, were used to create this dress. The main fabric is a solid, bright red canvas. The second fabric features several shades—yellow, red, and brown—on a black background. The pattern is reminiscent of Khokhloma decorative painting. The combination of these two richly colored materials gives the dress incredible brightness and contrast. The designers at Kadril combined two fabrics using an original technique. In the bodice, the red fabric creates a sarafan-like neckline with a deep neckline. The patterned fabric is sewn into the lower part of the skirt with triangular inserts.
