What traditional clothing do they wear in France?

Answer 1

Clothing in France resembles clothing in other Western countries.

- Casual clothing: trousers (likely blue-jeans), sneakers, T-shirt, sweater, coat/jacket if necessary. Fits most French regardless of age, gender, income.

- For businessmen and white-collar workers, brown or dark leather shoes, shirt, tie and suit. Women of the same group may wear a skirt and jacket and a blouse.

- Popular with social estate residents in big cities: sneakers and tracksuits, especially when the brand printed in large characters on it, or is easily recognisable; that group, boys and girls alike, would be nicknamed "Chav" in England. Hooded sweaters are especially widespread in these locations. Sagging pants were also common for males here, but that fashion doesn't exist anymore.

- Older people may wear comfortable clothes, velvet trousers, casual checked shirts, any comfortable jumper/pullover. Women may wear a variety of dresses or modest skirts, blouses and jackets.

A "traditional" outfit could be: a pair of brown leather shoes, matching socks, velvet trousers, checked pattern shirt, pullover and a flat cap or a dark-blue Basque beret. In folklore dance groups (there are a few, but they're not drawing much interest), women tend to wear aprons on top of their blouses, and sometimes laced headdresses.
