Parade - Costumes de St-Evarzec.

Le début du XIXème siècle vit apparaître une grande diversification du costume breton, en raison notamment de l’enrichissement du monde agricole. Cette éclosion se déroula principalement en Cornouaille. Les costumes permettaient de revendiquer l’appartenance à une paroisse ou à une région. Les hommes portaient - comme sur l’image - le «Bragou Braz» ou large culotte. Sur l’image : costumes de St-Evarzec (près de Quimper).

In the early nineteenth century appeared a greater diversification of Breton costume, mainly due to the enrichment of the agricultural world. This outbreak took place mainly in Cornouaille. Costumes allowed to claim ownership to a parish or region. Men wore - as in the picture - the "bragou Braz" or wide trousers. Image: costumes from St.Evarzec. (near Quimper).
