| | Costume - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | National costume or regional costume can express local (or exiled) identity and emphasise uniqueness. | | | Without theatrical costumers, the audience would be left wondering who is related to whom, and which person is which. | | | The term costume can refer to wardrobe and dress in general, or to the distinctive style of dress of a particular people, class, or period. |

| | She succeeded in her aim mainly because people felt that their national identity was under threat and the wearing of a national costume was one way to declare that identity. | | | The costume regarded as national dress is based on clothing worn by Welsh countrywomen during the early nineteenth century, namely a striped flannel petticoat, worn under a flannel open-fronted bed gown, with an apron, shawl and kerchief or cap. | | | His son James James (1833-1902) composed the music to accompany the words and in 1858 the work was entered in the National Eisteddfod at Llangollen as Glanrhondda. |

| | National costume of Wales |
| | Welsh National costume evolved in Wales in the late 18th century as a development of costume worn in town and country. | | | She succeeded in developing the Welsh "national dress" because people felt that their national identity was under threat and the wearing of a national costume was one way to declare that identity. | | | The typical female costume, as designed and made popular by Lady Llanover, was made up of the following: |

| | Even Henry VIII got in on the act and commissioned an artist called Van Dyck to create an English National Costume, this also failed. | | | Still they do have a National costume, but it's the way the ladies dress that is most well known, in fact there isn't really a National costume for men although recently through the rise of nationalism in Wales a tartan has been created and tartan trousers or kilts are often worn. | | | One of the most famous national costumes in the world is that worn in Scotland, the kilt, however some people say that the kilt is not as traditional as some would have it. |

| | At the Eisteddfod held at Cardiff in 1834, she won the prize for an essay entitled 'The Advantages resulting from the Preservation of the Welsh language and National Costume of Wales'. | | | In this way an internationally recognised form of Welsh National Costume was created, although her main motive is thought to have been to save the Welsh flannel and woollen industry which was under threat from imported cotton. | | | Her winning essay from the 1834 Cardiff Eisteddfod was published with a series of coloured illustrations of Welsh costumes, reproduced from water-colours painted by herself. |

| | GWYBODIADUR: FAQ About Welsh |
| | It’s dreary I know, but there isn’t really much in the way of traditional dress in Wales, and what there is is long extinct: whereas in some countries national costume makes an appearance at festivals, weddings and so on, Welsh costume is strictly for those postcards and china dolls. | | | Words to all three verses with (non-literal) English translation, plus a recording of the chorus sung by a choir of what sounds like thousands, can be found on the website of the Welsh National Gymanfa [sic] Ganu Association: http://www.wngga.org/HenWlad.html. | | | But the most mysterious of all is penguin, which is often claimed to come from the Welsh pen gwyn, ‘white head’. |

| | Welsh Identity |
| | Traditional values were under threat at the time and the red cloak and black hat became regarded as national dress. | | | The Welsh costume developed during the 19th century as part of the conscious revival of Welsh culture. | | | A national respect grew around this plant, which was worn by the Welsh in the Battle of Crecy, and by 1536, when Henry VIII gave a leek to his daughter on 1st March, was already associated with St. Davids Day. |
