LATVIAN COSTUME
NOTE: Since putting this Post on here, please see the interesting comment which I have recently received. Thank you.
NOTE: Hi! I'm Latvian. These postcards are beautiful, but they don't really show our national costumes, except for the first one. Others are based on our national costumes but are in fact made for stage in Soviet occupation times. :)
Here are some of my postcards from Latvia, of people dressed in Latvian costume, including some dancing the "Lettish Dance."

PLEASE NOTE: These postcards are NOT FOR SALE, as they are part of my private collection only.
Postcards showing people dressed in the costumes of various countries are an excellent source of information!
For more information about these postcards and costumes, please see the website. Just go to the HOME PAGE and click on the tab for "POSTCARDS", and they will come up. Thank you.

Hi Evita. Thank you so much for this very interesting information. I was not aware of it before so as you can see, I have added your comment on here, so that others can see it too.
