This unique exhibition offers a rare opportunity for visitors to view eight exceptionally well-preserved and valuable zubuns from the Traditional Costume of Serbia – Kosovo and Metohija Collection. The Ethnographic Museum holds as many as 691 zubuns, 46 of which belong to this particular collection. Due to their age and fragility, these garments are rarely displayed.
A zubun is a part of women’s formal traditional attire and is considered one of the oldest garments in the southern Balkans. Made of white homespun wool and richly decorated with embroidery, braid, and felt appliqués, the zubun reflects a high level of craftsmanship and artistic expression, as well as the cultural identity of the Serbian people. Its ornamental details and geometric plant motifs reveal deep symbolism and the refined aesthetic of these traditional garments, some of which are up to 150 years old.
We invite all lovers of ethnology, traditional folk art, and fashion to take advantage of this opportunity to visit the exhibition and enjoy the beauty of Serbian traditional costume.
Ticket price: 300 RSD.
