Bunad (Norwegian: [ˈbʉ̂ːnɑd], plural: bunader/bunadar) is a Norwegian umbrella term. In a broader sense, the term encompasses household, householding equipment, and livestock as well as both traditional rural clothes (mostly dating to the 18th and 19th centuries) and modern 20th-century folk costumes. [1]
The male bunads are, to a lesser extent than the women's bunads, part of an unbroken costume tradition, and are thus based on the clothing style in the mid-1800s. The bunaden has either black breeches or long pants, black jacket, and red, green, blue or black vest. As for the female bunad, there are embroideries in the traditional, local style. [2]

Traditionally a bridal crown (German: Brautkrone or, in the Black Forest, Schäppel) is a headdress that, in Central and Northern Europe, single women wear on certain holidays, at festivals and, finally, at their wedding. Bridal crowns today, of another type, are also often provided by church parishes for the use of brides at their weddings.
