“In today’s door in the Christmas calendar, Nissepigen and Nissebroderen have found the sewing kittat in Nuuk, where members of the royal family have over time sewn their Greenlandic national costumes.
Her Majesty the Queen has worn various Greenlandic national costumes. The current one is a West Greenlandic suit, which mainly consists of a heavy, colorful pearl collar with an accompanying purple woman anorak without a hood with an upright collar and cuffs in dark sealskin. The picture shows the Queen in her Greenlandic national costume in 2009.
The sewing room Kittat in Nuuk is one of two sewing rooms in Greenland that have been established as educational institutions to preserve the special craft methods it takes to create a Greenlandic national costume. Although both sewing rooms are located in southwestern Greenland, the seamstresses also learn to make the regional costumes that belong to East and North Greenland.”
This is festive:
