Description
Summary:The paper focuses on the issue of adaptation and modification of the coat “chamara” in the historical and cultural horizon. The original shepherd overcoat spread out in Europe due to Spanish Renaissance fashion and gradually adopted the ethno-cultural features of individual cultural areas. In the Central Europe, especially in Poland, Hungary and later in Bohemia, the more archaic, Renaissance form of the coat was adapted to the folk costumes of pastoral areas, while the middle class transferred the “chamara” to ethnically accentuated fashion of the 19th century. Therefore, in 1848 the “chamara” became a national costume in Czech culture and its popularity, especially in smaller settlements, persisted until the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.
