The variety of traditional costumes in everyday life
Dirndls and Lederhosen are indispensable for many occasions, especially in Bavaria. Beyond that, traditional clothing can also be stylishly integrated into everyday wear. Here, we’ll reveal when and how you can wear your favorite Trachten outfits even without a folk festival and provide tips for the perfect everyday Trachten look.
Occasions for Wearing Trachten
In addition to weddings and family celebrations, more and more Trachten fans can be seen wearing their traditional outfits in beer gardens or even at church. Trachten can also be easily incorporated into everyday life: for example, during a picnic outdoors, a cozy barbecue evening, or a Sunday visit to the local inn. Fashionable Trachten is even suitable for the office! We’ll show you the best combinations and what to consider when putting together an everyday Trachten outfit.
Everyday Trachten Outfits for Her
For festive occasions, women often opt for an elaborate Dirndl: with lace aprons, intricate embellishments, and luxurious fabrics. In everyday life, however, classic and simpler Dirndl styles, like our vintage Dirndls, are in demand. These are usually made of cotton fabrics, which offer greater comfort. Whether buttoned or laced, with a low-cut or high-neck design, is entirely up to personal preference, as is the skirt length. However, women should keep in mind that deep necklines are not recommended, especially in a professional setting.
Traditional skirts, especially a Trachten skirt, offer great combination possibilities: These can be paired with simple blouses and tops for a harmonious, airy summer outfit. Traditional tops, such as Trachten blouses for women or Trachten bodices are also highly versatile – they can, for example, be paired with jeans for a modern look.
The Trachten jacket for men is a stylish alternative to a business blazer or a lightweight summer jacket. Its tailored, figure-hugging cut enhances a woman’s silhouette while exuding timeless and understated elegance.
Women should avoid too much extravagant jewelry with their Trachten outfit for everyday wear – less is more. However, when it comes to Trachten shoes for women, anything goes: Ballerinas and Trachten sneakers are comfortable and perfect for casual wear, while Trachten pumps can add an elegant touch to office attire.
Everyday Trachten Outfits for Him
Men have it a bit easier: A casual Trachten combination, consisting of Lederhosen and a Trachten shirt for men, creates a relaxed, everyday look. This outfit is also ideal for hiking or cycling trips, as it is both breathable and durable. For a more subtle style, Trachten shirts pair wonderfully with jeans, creating a youthful and traditional casual look.
For a business look, Trachten shirts with button plackets are a great choice as they pair well with both dress pants and jeans. When complemented by a Trachten blazer for men or a men’s Trachten vest, a formal business ensemble can be effortlessly created.
