The cardigan is a cuddly alternative to the traditional Trachten jacket also known as “Janker”. It is the first choice if the temperatures on the Oktoberfest are rather chilly and, moreover, pleasantly light to wear. Figure-hugging models give you the opportunity to show off your upper body to its best advantage. If you like a classic look, choose a model in the style of a country house cardigan with decorative deer horn buttons.
Bavarian cardigan stylishly combine
In order to appear at the Oktoberfest in an authentic autumn style, a knitted jacket in traditional costume style can be combined with a stylish waistcoat. If you like it warm and cosy but want to show off your strong arms, choose a knitted vest instead. Choose a pair of crisp leather trousers from Alpenclassics and you'll make the look perfect.
Discover knitwear Bavarian style
The quaint and beautiful traditional clothes of the Alpine regions of Bavaria, Austria and Switzerland are not only remaining part of people's everday life there, but are also well-known and popular throughout the world, last not least as the perfect Oktoberfest outfits. Trachten mode, as the traditonal costume fashion is called in German, is best known for items like the iconic dirndl dresses and men clothing like lederhosen. But knitwear also plays a crucial role in the clothing Alpine people like to wear. Richly patterned and often decorated with embroidery and pretty metal buttons and buckles the jackets, jumpers and socks ooze the rustic and cosy charm of the good old days. They are skillfully manufactured from top quality sheep's wool; especially in ladies' fashion cotton and silk are popular modern additions that make for a smoother, softer touch and a more sophisticated look.
Bavarian style represents the most popular clothing in Germany
Trachten mode is becoming more precious and popular as globalisation offers people much of the same thing wherever they go. Traditional clothes which are linked to the environment and circumstances of a specific region can still be found throughout Germany. Just think of iconic items like the Northern fishermen's shirts, knitwear and caps or the lovely costume dresses of the Black Forest in the Southwest. But the clothing Alpine regions have created in the course of centuries prove more popular than any other folk costume in Germany. One reason for that might be that they are the most suitable Oktoberfest outfits. No visit of the Oktoberfest would be complete without wearing at least a few folkloristic items of clothing like dirndl dress, lederhosen or the typical knitwear of Bavaria and they are popular souvenirs for visitors as much as they are much loved and treasured traditional clothes of the locals. Clothing in Germany is generally of the highest quality, skillfully made from best materials, so whatever you choose for yourself or your loved ones will be beautiful and wearable for a long time.
