Here we will post Bulgarian folk costumes from the regions of the former Bulgarian Exarchate. This includes the territory from Eastern Albania till Eastern Thrace and from North Dobrogea till the White sea.
I will start with the Western and end with the Eastern folk costumes.
Folk clothes from the so-called Miyachko-debarski region

There is such a unique and beautiful verity of folk costumes across our entire ethnic land. The patterns in the costumes with all it's colour expresses the warmth of our people.

The "Fustanella" (sort of like a skirt) that the men wear is identical to the one the Greeks wear, and in general the clothing the women wear can easily be mistaken for Greek clothing from all around Greece. Not all of them of course but some are.

The Fustanela is most popular in the south-west of the Balkans. But it isn't modern Greek in origin. It's actually Albanian.

Your username is Pontios. Are you by any chance the result of Pontian refugees from the 1920's who settled in Macedonia?
Pontios

Impossible to have an Albanian origin as the fustanella comes from the "chiton" which was used even before the Roman Empire by the Greeks. The word "fustanella" comes from the Greek word "fusta" meaning skirt and the reason the word for it in every other nation that wears it starts with "fusta". The Albanians call it fustanellė, the Bulgarians call it fustanela, even the Turkish have a similar word "fistan". So for it to be Albanian or any other nation that has it today is impossible since before the Roman Empire, none of those nations existed.

The Fustanela could come from the ancient Chiton, but it still doesn't give you modern Greeks the right to claim it.
This costume was used by the local Arvanites (Albanians) of Athens and Greece in general, who were once a majority in Athens. This was the reason why Lord Byron wore it during his time in Greece.
http://i45.tinypic.com/m8mp3c.png
It is because Athens twenty-five years ago, was only an Albanian village.

This Albanian costume is today the national dress of Greece.
Starting to go off topic, so this is my last post on the subject.

Really i thought that the costumes looked very slavic, but Greece is really close so it makes sense
On the Balkans all costumes are similar. We have much of a common history, so it makes sense. You can't just name a costume "originally Greek" or so.

Of course not the entire costume, the fustanella though is of Greek origin though, yes it might have differences but I am only talking about origin. All the nations that have it today did not exist at the time the fustanella first began.

Btw, as further East you go, the costumes start to look more Med and the red colour is not dominant like in the folk costumes in Macedonia.
For example the costumes from the coastal city of Pomorie, the red colour there is replaced with black.

The folk costumes represented in these pictures belonged to real people. For example this costume was property of a Kosovar Bulgarian woman who emigrated to Bulgaria when Kosovo became part of Serbia.

South West Balkan dress.
It's an interesting dress.
We call it fustan.
It's common in Macedonia, Bulgaria, Greece, Albania.
Probably inherited from the Thracians.
I have a thread about Rusalii, an ancient Thracian custom common in Macedonia where the participants wear fustan as a dress.

In folk customs there are beliefs for which no one has evidence - such as wandering the ghouls among us during bad days, for example, but people perform rituals associated with them. The 12 days from Christmas to Epiphany are bad, which in the Bulgarian folk calendar are perceived as a dangerous time - a time of evil. It is believed that the bad spirits are most furious and roam the earth from sunset to the singing of the first roosters. The notion that karakondulas, vampires, and werewolves are particularly dangerous to humans determines the performance of many rituals that will save us from their evil power. customs. It is the Russians who roam entire groups during the bad days and persecute evil forces.
The Rusaliis' secret male societies, also called Kalushari, bear fertility, heal and persecute demons.
RUSSIA - Wars, healers, dancers, ancient mystics or priests of the cult of Dionysus?

Agrianian(Thracian) peltast.
Interestingly enough it is supposed that the name Ohrid, the city which name was known as Lyhnidos in the ancient period, comes from the name of the tribe Agrianes, where the typical A=O change took place later on. Although the Agrianes didn't live around Ohrid at first but around the upper Struma river, probably there were some kind of Thracian migrations into Macedonia during the Roman period for which we have an account from the Greek historian Strabo who writes that the Thracians moved in Macedonia in big numbers.
