Summary/Abstract: With the emergence of folk dance on the stage, questions of costume and traditional dress arose alongside choreographic and aesthetic concerns. From the outset, stage folk dance attire has mediated between authenticity, visual expressiveness, and the practical demands of performance. Over time, original village garments, stylised adaptations, and newly conceived designs have appeared on stage in shifting proportions, reflecting changing attitudes towards tradition, regional identity, uniformity, and individuality. From the Gyöngyösbokréta movement through the Táncház movement to contemporary dance-theatre productions and collaborations with fashion designers, stage folk dance costume has remained a dynamic and evolving field at the intersection of cultural heritage and artistic innovation.
