Details

Was worn in Hindeloopen in the early 19th century. The Hindelooper costume is a very colorful and varied costume, which differs completely from the costume that was worn in the rest of Friesland at the time. The colorful character of the Hindelooper costume, especially when one is out of mourning, is due to the use of chintz and Indian fur. Sits is a colorful cotton fabric painted with floral motifs, originally imported from India by the VOC. East Indian fur is a checkered fabric, also from India.
