“The General Swedish National Costume”
The general Swedish National Costume was recreated
in 1903 in Falun by the founder of the Women’s National
Costume Society, Märta Jörgensen and the artist Gustav
Ankarcrona, Anders Zorn and Carl Larsson
The National Costume Society meant there was a need for a costume
in popular fashion for people who lived in places, for example
towns that never have had any particular popular costume tradition.
The Swedish Costume has become very popular thanks to Her Majesty
the Queen Silvia.
We also offer it as a package of materials.
