traditional dress
Heritage clothing style
Traditional dress refers to clothing styles associated with a particular culture, region, or ethnic group, often worn for ceremonies, festivals, or cultural events: She wore traditional dress to the wedding.
The term implies garments with historical roots passed down through generations, distinct from contemporary fashion.
What counts as traditional dress varies enormously—from Japanese kimono to Scottish kilts to Nigerian agbada.
