Graffer Costume


The Graffer costume is made after an old blue costume from the 17th century. It was found on the farm Graffer in Lom in Gudbrandsdalen. The first version of the costume was either completely blue or black with embroidery on the skirt, vest, purse and hat. The Graffer family designed the costume in 1952 the way it looks now. The vest is made of red cotton/ viscose. The skirt, purse and hat are made of blue wool fabrics with colorful embroideries in wool. 
The Costume is used on the National Day, weddings, confirmations and Baptists.
