Gelmel

Costumes

    

 

 

 

The dancers of the group have several costumes which give a true and fair reconstruction of the clothes which were worn in the 19th century.

 

The type of costume depends on the situation that is being presented, so that the work costumes that are worn by the dancers are chosen to depict those worn by workers executing various crafts, while others relate to party attire as worn in Antwerp old town.
