 传统的威尔士服装

没有多少国家可以说,他们的民族服装可能拯救了一个国家!

对英国的最后一次入侵发生在1797年威尔士的菲什加德(Fishguard),当时法国军队在兰温达(Llanwnda)附近成功登陆。 在一次疯狂的抢劫中,人们喝了很多酒(一艘葡萄牙船几天前刚刚遇难,其货物被当地人 "拯救"),许多入侵者喝得太多,无法战斗。 在两天内,入侵失败了,法国人投降了一支当地民兵部队。

但奇怪的是,投降协议中提到了几个 千人 英国红衣战士向法国人扑来--但只有几个人 一百个 在Fishguard的士兵!然而,在这个农村地区,有数百名威尔士妇女穿着传统的红斗篷和黑帽子,她们来看看发生了什么。 在远处,似乎喝醉了的法国人可能把这些妇女误认为是英国的格林纳迪士兵!"!

传统的威尔士服饰是由威尔士农村地区的妇女穿着的。 这种独特的服饰是基于一种由羊毛制成的睡袍,其风格可以追溯到18世纪,穿在紧身胸衣外面。 这是由一条印花领巾、一条衬裙、围裙和针织长袜组成的。 这种服饰由一顶高冠帽和一件红色带帽斗篷完成,让人想起17世纪的时尚风格。

在18世纪末/19世纪初之前,并没有所谓的威尔士民族服装。 在19世纪30年代,格温特的一位铁匠的妻子Lady Llanover在鼓励穿着 "民族 "服装方面非常有影响力。 她认为建立一个威尔士民族身份非常重要,因为在这个时候,许多人认为他们的民族身份受到威胁。 她鼓励使用威尔士语言和穿着可识别的威尔士服装,以农村妇女的传统服装为基础。

这种服装的采用也与威尔士民族主义的发展相吻合,因为工业化的兴起被视为对传统农业生活方式的威胁。由于大多数服装是由羊毛制成的,这也促进了威尔士的毛纺工业。

随着19世纪的发展,穿戴传统服饰变得不那么流行了,到19世纪80年代,威尔士服饰更多的是作为一种维持传统和庆祝独立的威尔士身份的尝试,而不是作为一种日常服饰。

今天,威尔士人的服装在圣大卫节以及音乐会和音乐节上的表演者都会穿着。 它对旅游业也非常重要:穿着威尔士服装的玩偶是很好的礼物和纪念品!
