Bunad is a Norwegian umbrella term encompassing a range of both traditional rural clothes mostly dating to the 19th and 18th centuries as well as 20th-century folk costumes. In its narrow sense, the word bunad refers only to clothes designed in the early 20th century that are loosely based on traditional costumes.
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]
