This lovely postcard shows a group of Ukrainian couples dancing. The girls are wearing traditional ethnic wear known as 'Vyshyvanka', a dress with Ukrainian ethnic embroidery. They are wearing head-dresses known as 'Ochipok', which are common for married women. Unmarried girls wear Ukrainian wreaths. Men are dressed traditionally as well, in outer garments known as 'Kozhukh'.
