Local costumes in Mamoiada are no longer worn in everyday life
but they are carefully preserved and worn during the most significant
celebrations.
Particularly worthy of attention is the female costume,
be it the "rich" one worn by aristocratic women, the "costume de dama",
or the middle class one, the "costume de vassalla" or, even, the
so-called "costume de viuda" worn by widows.
Of plain cut, the sober
elegance of the female costume is due to the beautiful combination of
coluors and the elaborate embroidered motifs on the silk band "su
vrunimentu" adorning the skirt "su goresi".
