of course we visited a lot of historical places
but we also made some shopping!
I have always loved bavarian outfits.
I think that dirnl dresses are really lovely
and give a nice curvy silouhette.
The traditionnal clothes are called TRACHTEN in Germany.
Those vintage traditionnal clothes are easy to find,
even in thrift stores.
In the 40's-50's, these outfits were worn on a daily basis
and not just as a costume for Oktober fest like nowadays...
So here is the outfit I built with a few of my last summer purchases.
The master piece is this sweater...
handmade with a lot of beautiful details.
Another find is this velvet vest,
with small embroidered flowers.
The white blouse is a flea market find in Munich.
My edelweiss necklace was find in a german flea market near home.
All the other parts of my outfit are not traditionnal...
but I thought they provided a quite good harmony...
40's green felt hat...
where I added vintage cherries.
Vintage american A line velvet skirt...
you could have think that it was a set with the vest,
but absolutly not!
My 50's astrologic basket...
and shoes from Miss L Fire!
That outfit was really fun to built and to wear!!!!
As I fell in love with Trachten fashion for women....
Sylvain was really not seduced by bavarian men's outfits!
No leather pants or feathers hat for him...
What a pity!!!!
As I suppose that just like me, you would have loved to see him...
with traditionnal bavarian leather shorts and suspenders!!!!
But he will not get ride of his beautiful ties!
This one with small "bambies" is really fun.
A lot of people noticed that my outfit were from Bavaria...
I really LOVE this sweater...
must definitively find a way to wear it for Xmas season...
yes, fall is now in the past...
I write this post looking at the first snow falling outside...
Do you like vintage bavarian outfits?
Do you sometimes wear traditionnal clothes?
FRENCH CORNER
Pendant notre séjour en Bavière et Autriche, nous n'avons pas fait que du tourisme, mais aussi un peu de shopping... vintage bien sûr! J'ai toujours beaucoup aimé les vêtements traditionnels bavarois, je trouve qu'ils donnent une silhouette très féminine... Ces vêtements appelés TRACHTEN sont assez faciles à trouver sur place, car dans les 40's-50's, c'était des vêtements de tous les jours et pas seulement un costume porté une fois par an pour la fête de la bière comme de nos jours. J'ai ainsi pu rapporter plusieurs pièces vintage dans mes valises! Je présente ici une tenue construite avec quelques unes de mes trouvailles.
Ce fût une tenue très fun à construire et à porter!!! Sylvain n'a pas eu le même coup de coeur pour la mode masculine bavaroise... et oui, il n'a pas craqué sur les chapeaux à plumes et les culottes de cuir... Dommage...
Et vous, vous en pensez quoi de cette mode traditionnelle?
- A bientôt -
