AP Exhibition - The Vale d'Este Costume

 #07

This typification of dress projects the imaginary of uses and customs to situations of mixture, reflecting changes and accommodations of taste and market, evoking debates about the influence of urban environments on the experiences of rurality. 

The use or recourse to felt hats, doing justice to the city of Braga as a center of hat making, in a distant past, but always remembered, allows Braga to speak of the variation of two modes of dress, Vale d'Este and Sequeira, two parishes in the urban periphery. The differences are based on curious details of appropriation, significant when adjusted to issues of identity: the shapes of the hat and the decorative trim, in one the flat crown, in another the round crown, in one feathers and pompoms, velvet ribbons hanging to the neck, in another with a small mirror in front; the vests differ in color and the aprons, woven on the loom, vary in color and shape, in the first dominate the vertical stripes, in the second the drawn. 



The diversity of use and the rules of combination do not always respect a pattern, giving way to variation according to the heritage resources.
