| Traditional costume of Russia man |
The costume of the Russians is noted for its colorfulness. Men often wear split long robes and long trousers, or sometimes white embroidered shirts together with pantalettes. In winter, they wear leather or cotton-padded clothes and fur hats.
Women like to wear short jackets and colorful skirts made of homespun cloth and embroidered with bright colored patterns. They often wear a scarf. Both men and women wear leather or felt boots with high uppers. Unmarried girls wear their hair in braids and adorn themselves with earrings, necklaces and other jewelry. Married women often bind their hair up in bobs.
Russian men living in urban areas prefer Western-style suits, loose-sleeved shirts with embroidered collars, while women like Western-style outer wear and skirts.
