====Folk costume==== The costume of adult men consisted of a mixture of oriental and Bulgarian costumes: a ''[[šubara]]'' on the head, then a shirt, a ''čakšire'' (long [[trousers]] with a long tour and narrow legs that fasten on the sides), ''mintan'' or ''palta'' ([[coat]]). A belt was tied around the middle of the body, and ''kondure'' or ''jemenije'' ([[shoes]]) were put on the feet.<ref name=MojaH/> Women, on the contrary, kept the oriental costume influenced by the Ottomans. Married women wore a ''[[fez (hat)|fes]]'' or ''otos'' (a cloth cap sewn from [[velvet]]) on their head, and unmarried women wore a ''kucelj'' ([[braid]]) down their backs. A ''šamija'' (scarf) was also put on the head, woolen outside the house, and ordinary inside the house. On the upper part of the body, a ''mintan'' or ''mintanče'' ([[jacket]]) was worn, that is, a ''jelek'' or ''žamadan'' ([[vest]]), under which was a shirt with a [[lace]] collar. Women did not wear [[skirt]]s, but ''dimije'', over which a richly decorated ''bošča'' ([[apron]]) was draped, and the waist was tied with a ''kušak'' (belt). On working days, they wore ''nalunas'' (loafers), and when they went out of the house they put on ''jemenije'' (shoes) similar to civilian ones. Formal women's clothing was very expensive and colorful, so it was accompanied by appropriate [[jewelry]]: ''[[Ducat|dukati]]'', gold necklaces, ''đinđuves'' (pearl necklaces), ''curaće'' ([[earrings]]) and rings. Women's [[wedding]] clothing included, in addition to ''mintančet'', ''dimije'', shirts and a fez, a terlik (saffian shoes with ornaments), a ''duak'' (veil), earrings, a ring, two rows of ''rubije'' (Ducats) as head jewelry and one larger Ducat that went on forehead.<ref name=MojaH/>
