What to expect

The Dutch Costume Museum shows everyone who is interested in folklore the explosion of colors and designs, reflecting the history of the Dutch folk costumes, and the stories and related practices. This way these stories will not be forgotten, in a time when folk costumes are gradually vanishing from the streets.

The global village has overstretched itself when it comes to fashion. All over the world, the clothing range has become identical. New designers are in vogue for just one season. As a response to this fast fashion, consumers take a renewed interest in sustainable fashion with a story, in which craft and handwork are prominent. This stirs up a new curiosity in traditional folk costumes. Local and traditional garb, with its characteristic scent of form and proportion, is a source of inspiration for today‘s fashion designers.

The museum is housed in monumental 17th century canalhouse at the corner of Leidsestraat. The interior contains a Delft Blue toiletpot which is still in use today. The museum has a unique museumshop with handmade presents made by the original folk factory.

In the photo studio you can have the photographer take a photo of you in Dutch folk costume with your family, friends or colleagues. The photo is a great souvenir to bring back home.
