Foustanin, cotton dress made of striped alatzia fabric. Red, green, yellow, orange, and black stripes are formed in the weft against a black background. The garment comprises a wide skirt and a separate bodice, which are joined at the waist.
The white shirt is made of taisto fabric, with lengthwise puckered bands created by warp threads of two different tensions. There is a vertical opening at the chest.
Women’s headscarf made of kouroukla, dyed in a deep red colour called tzeramidin. It is decorated with printed floral motifs in red and yellow, with black outline. The designs – of the edges (kkenarin) and the four corners (the milia) – are similar to those of other printed headscarves of the workshop of Evris Michael (or Euripides Mantilaris) and Kakoullis Brothers. The edges of the headscarf are decorated with pipilla (lace). The pattern features tiny white flowers with green leaves, repeated in a row.
The headscarf shows signs of wear, and repair indicates that the pipilla lace had come apart in some places. Despite this, the clarity of its motifs and the brightness of its colours are well preserved. Similar samples exist in the National Historical Museum in Athens (Gangadi et al. 1999, 178, fig. 179, 180), in the Leventis Municipal Museum of Nicosia, in the Historical and Folklore Museum of Corinth, in the Municipal Museum of Folk Art in Limassol, as well as in private collections.
