Description The agglomeration of Brno was affected relatively early by industrialization and the associated modernization processes, which led to the disappearance of traditional folk dress in many villages as early as the mid-19th century. At the beginning of the 20th century, with the rise of the national move- ment, variants of the national costumes replaced traditional folk dress at rural festivals. Over time, the Kyjov costume gained a prominent posi- tion and it is still worn in many villages. However, it is gradually being replaced by revived forms of traditional folk costume. The study examines the reasons behind the declining identification with the Kyjov costume. It illustrates a shift in perceptions of traditional folk dress, which is no longer perceived as a marker of national identity but of regional identity. At the same time, it demonstrates how the Kyjov costume strengthens other identities
