The Traditional Women’s Shirt from the Heritage of the Museum of History and Ethnography of Bălți Municipality

Summary/Abstract: The present article presents two women’s shirts from the collections of the Museum of History and Ethnography of Bălți municipality, namely the pleated neck shirt with separate „altița” and the straight shirt with placket. The research of the traditional women’s shirts selected for this study, by describing the cloth and cut, the arrangement of the ornaments on the shirts and the embroidery and assembly techniques, is intended to be a contribution to reaffirming the importance of each piece of traditional wear in the museum’s collections in the recovery of regional specificity and knowledge of the diversity of traditional shirt models, from the point of view of raw material, manufacturing techniques and ornamentation. In the same way, we aim to contribute to the common effort to rediscover the potential of the women’s shirt and to ensure a better promotion in the environment of the general public.
