My daugther with her national suit called "bunad"











A bunad is a traditional norwegian costume typically of rural origin. Bunads are local to Norway's traditional districts , and the result both of traditional evolution and organized efforts to discover and modernize traditional designs. The designs are typically elaborate, with embroidery, scarves, shawls and hand-made silver or gold jewelery. There are bunads both for men and women, though women's bunads are more diverse and popular.
