Your 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.
  • Hips: Around the widest part of the seat.
  • Inside leg: From the crotch to the ankle, without shoes.

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 Tirq is the traditional pair of men's trousers in Albanian traditional costume – this model from Gjakova reinterprets it in a more modern and practical way: instead of the classic waistband, an elastic waistband ensures a comfortable fit during long celebrations and dance performances.

Design and features

  • White with black braided trim
  • Trim running in a V shape from the waistband to the centre and along the legs
  • Side slip pockets trimmed with braid
  • Small slit at the leg hem, edged in black
  • Black elastic waistband for a comfortable, flexible fit

Occasions

Wear the Tirq to Albanian weddings (dasma), on Flag Day, Dita e Flamurit (28 November), at traditional family celebrations, and at cultural and folklore events and dance performances.
