Summary/Abstract: In each city, clothing stories (narratives) can be followed over a longer or shorter period of time. The clothing of the residents of Belgrade went through several stages – from a copy of Turkish clothing to the creation of the so¬called national costume in the 19th and early 20th centuries, and up to fashion clothing in the 20th century. In the past two centuries, the clothing appearance of the inhabitants of Belgrade has been completely changed and adapted to the challenges of the time in the production of clothing. Political, financial, economic, cultural, educational and other changes that accompanied the social development of the restored state and its capital – Belgrade, were also reflected in the clothing of its inhabitants. The paper will refer to some of the clothing narratives of the inhabitants of Belgrade as important indicators of the development of society, as well as the various influences that were intertwined in the appearance of the clothing of its inhabitants.
