Štajerska

In the early 20th Century, men’s and women's working clothes were already made of industrially produced fabric. This region is well known for the blue cotton aprons worn by the men as they worked on their farms or as blacksmiths. Single women wore their kerchiefs tied behind their necks, where married women wore their kerchiefs tied under their necks. This is by far the most practical costume, and villagers in this region can still be found wearing this type of dress.
