Women's Russian national costume

Any stage performance is exciting for all members of a folk group. At this point, everyone wants the performance to be top-notch, and during preparation, every nuance is carefully considered, down to the last detail. One of the key factors in a successful folk dance or song presentation is the stage attire, which, even before the music begins, suggests the style of the upcoming performance to the audience. The workshops of the Kadril company offer custom-made Russian blue folk costumes for groups of this genre.

Unique Design Features

The dress is loosely cut, without darts or a fitted waist. The hem is adorned with a wide flounce, visually enhancing the fullness of the skirt. The neckline is decorated with braid and tightly frames the neck. Long flounced sleeves are gathered at the wrists. The dress is made from a combination of two fabrics in different shades – a monochrome light blue and a creamy blue with a floral print. A solid sky blue shade was used to decorate the sleeves and hem. The Russian blue folk costume is ankle-length. The apron, an integral part of the outfit, is only a few centimeters shorter than the dress. Its shape is an elongated rectangle with decorative embroidery.

Headband

The Russian blue folk costume is complemented by a headband. The designers at Kadril selected a less pompous headdress that matches the style of the outfit. The wide headband, called a venchik, is distinguished by its being decorated with the same ribbon as the dress itself. This traditional Russian headdress was worn by very young girls, who were allowed to leave their heads uncovered with large kokoshniks or kiki. The venchik is made of a material of the same color—a solid blue. The outer surface is decorated with patterns that replicate the pattern on the apron. The color palette of the fabrics and the decorative embroidery are unifying elements of the outfit, allowing all the elements of the costume to be perceived as a single whole. The Russian blue folk costume is only available in a three-piece set.
