What is the name of Switzerland's national costume?

Answer 1

There is no national dress. Instead, the individual cantons (states) and districts have their own local traditional dress, now usually worn only on special occasions. In some places there are quite elaborate conventions about traditional dress. For example, the dress for single women can be sexy, while married women have to dress more soberly.
