We have very limited information on school wear garments in Crostia. Our Croatian archive is very limited. We believe that traditional garments were very common in rural primary schools through World War I. Croatia at the time was part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. More standard European styles were prevalent in the cities. Major changes appear to have ocurred both duriung and after the War. After the War, Croatia became part of Yugoslsvia in a federation with Serbia and other Balkan areas. Our archive is limited, but by the 1930s, traditioinal styles seem to have largely disappeared even in rural areas. Some traditionl styles appear to have opersisted more in areas of Serbia. We see Croatian children wearing garments similar to popular styles in Austria, although a factor here was Croatia and other parts of Yugoslvia were not as prosperous as Austria.
