In the Russian National Costume Museum you can see a variety of national costumes that come from all regions of Russia. A peasant shirt, kosovorotka, was a very popular item of clothing in the 18th century. It could be worn every day and on special occasions, at home and at work. Men wore shirts to their knees and women wore them to their ankles. The sarafan was either a sleeveless dress or a high skirt with stripes. Girls and young women wore it.
The most common type of festive headdress was kokoshnik. It was worn in the 18th and 19th century. The materials used to decorative headdress were gold, silver, pearl and decorative stones. Kokoshniks were very expensive and were handed down from generation to generation.
The men’s trousers, made of rough linen, were called portki. Women wore a long woolen skirt called a poneva which dates from the 19th and early 20th century. The poneva was worn by married women. In the winter both men and women wore sheepskin overcoats, usually with fur on the inside, called polushubok.
Both men and women wore bast shoes, lapti, which were worn over homespun onuchi – narrow strips of cotton wrapped around the lower leg – and valenki – felt shoes. Some peasants also had leather footwear: koty for women and leather boots for men.
