In Austria, the dirndl is a symbol of national identity, seen in Austria as a national symbol. [84] In tourist settings, staff in offices, restaurants, wineries and shops often wear dirndls as a work uniform; this is also the case in the non-Alpine regions in the east of Austria. [11] Even in everyday life, many Austrian women wear dirndls as an alternative to other fashions. [11] [18] Beginning in the late 1990s, dirndls and lederhosen experienced a boom in Austria and Bavaria, with some commentators speaking of a "dirndl Renaissance". [31] [60] [68] [32] [73] By 2013, it had become standard for every young Bavarian to have traditional clothing in their wardrobe. [32] [73] This increased interest in traditional clothing was noticed by fashion houses. Since the 2000s, increasing numbers of fashion houses have become involved in designing and selling high-end versions. [68] [32] [74] The garment was praised in 2001 by designer Vivienne Westwood during a visit to a fashion event in Austria. When some of the attendees criticised the garment as old-fashioned, she responded, "I do not understand you Austrians. If every woman wore a dirndl, there would not be any more ugliness". Subsequently, Westwood and her husband were honoured with the tile "Ambassador for Tracht" in 2010.

ACCESSORIES AND SHOES TO MATCH TRACHTEN FASHION: MUST-HAVES FOR HIM AND HER

There is increasing evidence that Germans are coming to view the dirndl as a German, rather than an exclusively Bavarian symbol. In the past few years, "Oktoberfest" celebrations have developed in parts of Germany remote from Bavaria, such as Münster in Westphalia. Dirndls and lederhosen are now considered an intrinsic part of such events. [94] Other evidence is the successful marketing of dirndls in the German national colours for wearing at football matches, noticeable at the 2006 FIFA World Cup. [42] Meanwhile, high-end German fashion houses are designing and selling their own designs.

In 1859, the first association to promote folk costume was founded in Miesbach in Bavaria. In the following years, similar tracht associations ( Trachtenvereine) were founded throughout Germany and Austria. The tracht associations promoted research and wearing of the traditional clothing in each region. This helped preserve the traditions against modern fashions; in contrast, the wearing of the traditional tracht declined in regions where the tracht associations were not active. The first umbrella organisation for the tracht associations was founded in 1890. [11] [45] [47] Weissengruber, Thekla (2004).

One reason given for the increasing popularity of the dirndl and lederhosen is an increased confidence in German self-identity. In the years following the Second World War, there was often a shame in German identity because of the crimes of the Nazi régime. In recent decades, there has been a celebration of being German. [11] [68] [32] [31] This "new patriotism" was evident in the support for the German football team at the 2006 FIFA World Cup. [77] According to journalist Michaela Strassmair, "As the international media arrived in Munich for the World Cup, they all wanted to see the same picture and share it with the world: pretty girls in Munich wearing dirndls."
