Macedonian Wedding Dresses

This is currently one of the main exhibits at the Museum of International Folk Art in Santa Fe. I'm sorry that not all my photos came out - most of the ones with the close-up detail are blurry. Not used to taking detailed photos with my phone...

But I'm pretty sure you can get the idea from what I can show you.














 They have one of these dresses that you could try on. It weighs over 30 lbs.

That's cool that there was one to try on. Then when you take it off you know how you'd feel if you lost 30 lbs. LOL
