Summary/Abstract: Based on previous research, the performed analysis, the comparisons of the numerous clothing parts and decorations, as well as their diffusion on the territory of the Republic of Macedonia, the Macedonian folk costumes can be divided into two basic types: I - Western-Macedonian type and II - EasternMacedonian type. This basic typology greatly coincides with the already performed division of the Republic of Macedonia into two ethnographic regions: western ethnographic region and eastern ethnographic region.
