British Costume

British costume refers to traditional clothing styles unique to the United Kingdom, often influenced by historical periods, regional identities, and social classes. Examples include the formal wear of tailcoats and top hats for men, and elaborate dresses or fascinators for women. Folkloric costumes like the tartan kilts of Scotland, the bowler hats, and the elegant suits associated with British ceremonial occasions also exemplify this style. These costumes often symbolize British heritage, history, and cultural identity, and are worn during special events, festivals, or theatrical performances to evoke a sense of tradition and national pride.
