Your child's measurements

To make sure your costume fits, we check every order against the measurements you enter before shipping. If an item is too tight, we'll get in touch with you.

* Required: height and weight. All other measurements are optional but help us check the fit.

How to measure
  • Height: Without shoes, from the top of the head to the floor.
  • Weight: Your current body weight – it helps us judge the fit.
  • Waist: Around the body where the trousers, apron or sash should sit.

Ideally, have someone else measure you – directly on the body, in underwear or close-fitting clothes.

A little room is fine Traditional costume pieces are cut generously. If an item has some room, you can have it taken in yourself by a tailor of your choice – an item that is too tight can hardly be altered. If in doubt, choose the larger size.

The Përparëse (also Bofça) is the apron of the Albanian women's traditional costume – here in the version for girls. In the Prizren line, the girls' traditional costume features one apron at the front and one at the back – both in bold red with black cord ornaments.

Design and features

  • Front apron divided into two sections, with black zigzag cords and cord rosettes
  • Back apron with curved black cord ornaments and rosettes
  • White piping as a contrasting line
  • Wide black braid trim along the edges
  • With black cord tie for fastening

Occasions

Your child can wear the Përparëse to Albanian weddings (dasma), on Flag Day, Dita e Flamurit (28 November), at traditional family celebrations and at cultural and folklore events.

What's included

You receive the front and back aprons. The traditional dress, waistcoat, headscarf and all other costume pieces shown in combination photos are not included.

Fit and size

When ordering, you enter your child's height and weight; further measurements are optional. We check every order for the right size before shipping. If a piece fits a little loosely, a tailor can easily adjust it.
