Belt-braid women's, red-white 0004

A women’s plaited braid belt in red and white — a fine woven belt 1.4 metres long to finish festive dress. It holds a shirt or a dress neatly at the waist, makes the silhouette slimmer and gives the look a finished air. The soft red and white combination looks more delicate than the classic palette, so it suits bright and restrained outfits alike. A convenient choice for anyone putting together a complete Ukrainian outfit.

The plaited belt is one of those small details without which traditional dress loses the wholeness of the look. The red and white braid echoes the colours in which Ukrainian embroidery was worked over the centuries, so the accessory fits easily into a national costume from any region. It is worn with vyshyvankas, skirts and dresses, and added to children’s folk dress for celebrations and performances.
