Trachten for Women

Trachten Fashion

Trachten fashion has a long tradition and today is more popular than ever. At the Oktoberfest and other folk festivals, traditional clothing is a must, and it is also worn more and more often at country weddings or family celebrations. The large selection of different dirndls, dirndl blouses and accessories has everything you could ask for!

Dirndls, aprons and jankers

The traditional costume for women consists of a dirndl, a dirndl blouse and a matching apron. Over this, you can wear a Trachten blazer called a janker, and the whole outfit can be topped off with matching accessories. You can choose a classic Trachten shoe or modern pumps to round off your outfit, the choice is up to your personal taste. Today, heels are no longer a must, and ballet flats are a comfortable alternative.

The Dirndl dress is available in different color combinations and patterns, as well as a wide variety of cuts. Choose from dirndls with a mini, midi or floor-length skirt: Trachten fashion has something perfect for every taste. You can also pair the dirndl with different blouses to create individual looks. Choose from long or short-sleeved blouses, blouses with a small collar, or off-the-shoulder styles, as well as models with ruffle trim. Traditionally, the dirndl blouse finishes just below the bust and has short puff sleeves. If you don't want to buy a new dirndl every year, you can change up your look with different Trachten Blouses for a new twist.

If your dirndl doesn't come with an apron, choose one to match the rest of the set. Remember: How you wear your apron is believed to represent your relationship status. If the bow is tied to the left, this is taken as a message that the wearer is single. Worn on the right side, and the bow symbolizes that the wearer is taken. A bow tied in the middle of the back indicates a widow.

To finish off your traditional outfit, Breuninger also has matching accessories for dirndls, Trachten dresses and blouses. With Trachten jewelry or a dirndl bag, you can create a stylish and complete look. On cooler days, a Trachten blazer, for example by St Moritz, can also be worn over your dirndl. Hip-length, straight or slightly waisted cut, piped edges and eye-catching decorative buttons are the characteristic features of the Janker.
