Synopsis

A dirndl or the true dirndl?

Since the 1930s, the textile company Franz M. Rhomberg has combined the dirndl with a brand image and thus created a product that was internationally touristic, but at the same time folk and ideologically anchored. Attributes such as "style" or "folksecht" recommended Rhomberg's dirndl fabrics in distinction to "fancy costumes". After 1945, the dirndl underwent a new upgrade under the label "Austrian Look". What was misused by National Socialism as an instrument of belonging and served for identity formation in the interwar period was now an Austrian export hit. In this volume, the cultural-historical contexts of traditional clichés are explored to this day.
