Podolnitsa

Gryazovets District, Vologda Gubernia. Early 20th century


The hem of a shirt was called a stan or stanushka, and a shirt with a richly decorated hem was called a podolnitsa. The collar of a woman’s shirt often revealed much of the neck and shoulders. Sometimes a short support would be fastened tightly around the neck with a small button.
