For those of you that arent familiar with it, these outfits are hand made and cost between 5.000 and 8.000 dollars. Maybe even more. That puts things into perspective.

[@clappertoncheeks]

I think when you're deprived of your true culture your entire life, something like wearing a bunad would be very emotional.

[@orirbjrk5573]

It's all part of a long legacy of diaspora. I'll admit I was a bit critical when auto play threw this at me, but it wasn't long before I myself got a bit choked up. I can see how impact it is to them to have this long awaited cultural reunion. Being an American I think it's important for all of us to know where we came from and appreciate the sacrifices our ancestors made in search for what was alluded to be a better life in this "new land". It doesn't make it any easier that many Norwegian families would have stayed if they could have. Norway was once a very poor country, something most would never guess today. I think wearing the Bunad is a way to reconcile a lost identity and embrace what your ancestors had been forced to leave, but in this modern sense to reclaim what was lost.

[@fredkeebox829]

+Þorír Bjørk: At least their ancestors got to expand their families in new, spacious land. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that there's as much, or more, total Norwegian blood in the US as Norway. 'Total' because it's probably well-mixed by now.

[@lasseeriksen3001]

No, actually... The Norwegians who have Bunad have never been more proud of the moment they put on their Bunad. It's the most Norwegian thing you can do and wear. Sadly not everyone has it, couse it costs 4.000 Dollars :3

[@NoName-t7e]

Niobesnuppa. You're talking as though the equivalent for you would be getting dressed up in an American cowboy costume. If you dont get why then its because you have never been separated from the land and culture of your ancestors.

[@johnmanzo9329]

We just returned from a 2 week trip to Norway visiting family. We saw a collage graduation and all of the young ladies were wearing Bunad’s along with some of the men also some moms had theirs on as well.

[@Lobos222]

The main reason less men wear them is only because they cost allot and men are generally less into clothes. So when one can ether get a dress for the one saying memmemememememememememem vs a boy that says, whatever. The decision is pretty easy for most.

[@satansfittesleker]

Where i come from in Norway wich is Trysil we got our own Bunad for the tradition. I dont got one because its to expensive. You cant go to the store and buy one. They are all sewn specially for you, and you only. Takes half a year to make it at least, special order through tailors who have specialised themself in the game. And all the silver... aswell made specially for you! :)

One can clearly see the ancient connection to the MIddle East and Central Asia, where the ancestors of all Europeans once migrated from, brought with them the knowledge of agriculture, the wheel and the horse, and mixed with the already existing population that had lived in Europe since the last Ice Age. DNA among other things proves this. For example a recent study here in Norway proved that 70-80% of all white ethnic Norwegian men can trace their DNA on their paternal side back to Central Asia, Turkey etc. I'm btw Norwegian, I grew up here, and live here still, and yes all my family, and relatives are white ethnic Norwegians!
