Costume fashion – folk clothing from Skåne

Costume fashion – folk clothing from Skåne is an exhibition filled with traditions and exciting details. On September 27th, we will reopen the exhibition after an update.

Skåne folk costume has a long and vibrant tradition. Some garments have looked more or less the same for centuries. They are often made from fabrics that have been saved, inherited and re-sewn to fit a new body and a new time.

Here, costume parts with exciting names such as the spedetrjua, opplöt, skinkllaka and fläckejool are displayed. We see different ways of tying a cloth depending on where in Skåne the woman lived, and we learn why the bride sometimes had to sleep sitting up the night before the wedding. You can see both the major features and the small details of Skåne folk costume, up until a change in the 1800th century when the clothing of the countryside increasingly began to resemble that of the city dwellers.

The important costume silver

Costume silver is a new, glittering element in the exhibition. It was worn mainly at large parties and celebrations, and was a clear status item – the more the better! Some types of jewelry were purely decorative, while others also had a practical function. Costume silver was passed down through generations, sometimes completely unchanged with roots in medieval forms, sometimes reworked in accordance with current fashion.

Gender-inclusive folk costume

Another new feature in the exhibition is Fredy Samuel Lundh's Skåne version of his gender-inclusive Bäckadräkt – an example of how the tradition is managed today. The creation of the Bäckadräkt has been a journey that began from within, with a feeling of exclusion, of wanting to fit in and have a place.

"I had no roots in folk tradition and noticed that I didn't feel at home in either the male or female version of folk costume," Fredy writes in the exhibition text about the Bäckadräkten.

Folk clothes or folk costume?

The term "folk costume" began to be used from the late 1800th century and is often associated with costumes designed by the folk costume movement. Folk costumes have their roots in the folk clothing of the common people with local characteristics, but gradually become more like a kind of uniform that does not reflect the rich diversity that existed among the common people's clothing.

Exhibition Costume fashion – folk clothing from Skåne is not a cavalcade of Scanian costumes from different areas, but an in-depth look at how the garments themselves were used, with a focus on the many details.

Included in the entrance fee, no advance booking.
