Program Description

Event Details

National folk costumes, or kroje, in the Czech Lands developed over centuries from the simple garments of the people to the colorful, artistic ensembles one finds today at festivals and in museums. Through slide illustrations and her own collection, Jeffries provides an interesting look at some of the literally hundreds of costume variations differing according to districts, villages, and feudal estates.
