    Description

    Vintage 1965 Lithuanian Traditional Costume with Karuna, Juosta, and Apron.  The juosta(sash) has inscription woven into it stating "The Soviet Lithuania 1940-1965".  The main colors of the costume are green, white and yellow.  The costume has been altered from the original fitting size.  The waistband can probably fit up to a 35 inch waist and the vest from shoulder to waist measures 14 inches and this too can probably fits roughly a 33 to 35 inch waist. The length of the skirt is roughly about 32.5 inches from waist to ankle, so this is probably for a person who is on the diminutive side.  The karuna features the colors of green, white, red and a hint of purple at the crown part.   The apron has a beige background wih colorful flowers in six panels and separated by traditional trim.   It is a lovely part of Lithuanian history and would be a nice addition to a historical collection or even still to wear at Lithuanian folk festivals. We try to calculate the most cost effective shipping available. Please do not hesitate to ask all questions before considering purchasing.  Many thanks for looking!
