Pag’s folk attire is especially beautiful and known throughout Europe. When speaking of Pag folk attire, one first thinks of the old-style women’s clothing, particularly the lace made by needlepoint, the blouses and headgear (called pokrivaca).

“Slave Girl” is a folk play which is traditionally performed during the carnival period and as part of the Pag Summer and Ethno-Evenings. In times past, a troupe wearing Pag folk attire and “Turkish” uniforms toured the town and displayed their craft in the squares or in front of the houses of notable townsfolk.

Pag lace is a unique product of the hard-working and skilful hands of the women from the town of Pag. Lace-making is a very old tradition throughout the Mediterranean.
