Estremadura Region - Typical Costume (Couple)

The costumes of Portugal are rich, varied and typical of each region. They express the social, cultural and professional identity of a people and adapt to work or festive occasions. Although the first function is to cover and protect the body from the weather, the upper classes have begun to have major concerns about the richness and ostentation of their clothing. Today, these costumes are most common in folklore groups and typical festivals across the country, where we try to keep traditions alive for generations to come. The Costume makes known the characteristics, history and traditions of each region. These are our Portugal Costumes!
