About

A family business and Polish craftsmanship

Founded in 1992, Polskie Stroje Ludowe now involves three generations of the family. Our costumes are cut, sewn and embroidered by craftspeople in small workshops in Poland. Designs draw on museum examples and ethnographic documentation.

We offer both hand and machine embroidery made in Poland. We use Polish fabrics and make wreaths, necklaces and other accessories ourselves. Materials and finishing are selected for each garment.

We work with folk dance groups, schools and Polish communities abroad. Orders can cover a group, one garment or additions to an earlier order. Read how to order and choose sizes.

Polish folk costumes is a product that we truly understand, as we ourselves have been leading various groups for over 30 years. From our extensive experience, we know what groups want and need: durability, eye-catching beauty, and functionality for dancers. That is why we offer our customers a wide-variety of choices when selecting one of our products. Our costumes not only fit the wearer, they also fit the needs of the client.

Our world-class embroiderers, saddlers, and shoemakers live all over Poland. While top quality hand embroidery comes out of the Kashubian, Mazovian, Podlasien and Podhalen regions, our professionals in Chelmno and Torun create our cutting and sewing. You can be guaranteed that personal attention has been paid to every detail of our product. These are not mass produced costumes, but, rather, each garment that our company produces is truly a unique work of art!

Since 1992, we have been supplying costumes not only to Poland, but also to Lithuania, Germany, France, Spain, Belgium, the Netherlands, the UK, the USA, Brazil, Argentina, Australia, and New Zealand. We pride ourselves on customer satisfaction, and will strive to ensure that you, too, are pleased with our work.

Welcome!
