Czech Clothing Through the Ages: Colorful, Simple, and Proud

Traditional clothing in the Czech Republic is colorful, unique, and full of history. The way people dressed in the past often depended on where they lived, what they did for work, and how wealthy they were. Some outfits were richly decorated, while others were simple and practical.

Embroidered Beauty in Blata

In regions like České Budějovice, Tábor, Jindřichův Hradec, and Vodňany, traditional women’s clothing was known for being very fancy and full of details. One of the most important pieces was the plena—a large scarf that women wore. Over time, embroidery, beads, and chemises (long under-shirts) were added to make the outfit even more special.

Simple Style in Doudlebsko

In South Bohemia, the Doudlebsko region had simpler clothing. This was a poorer area, so the clothes were more practical and less decorated. Men often wore bearskin trousers, plain shirts, and hats. They also wore belts to carry money, not just as fashion accessories.
