Portuguese traditional dress varies regionally, but it typically consists of bouffant long skirts for women and shortened leggings, waist coasts and sombreros for men. Known as saia, women's skirts display vibrant checkered or striped patterns, most often in red and white, and the outfit is completed with a kerchief to cover the hair. While traditional dress is not widely worn as of 2014, it's still used at weddings and festivals. Traditional dress is most widely seen in the northern Minho province for special occasions, and in this region the dress is particularly colorful and vibrant. Traditionally, when dressing in this manner, women wear several ornate gold necklaces and finish the outfit with a matching kerchief. In the Madeira region, traditional dress can often be seen at local markets.
