Last week, moderator Gerta Gixhari took part in the International Fashion Week Albania show. Gixhari wore the traditional Mirdita dress, with some changes, but this was not well received by many social media users. In the post, many people expressed that her dress is denigrating and insulting the traditional dress of Mirdita.
"In Mirdita, traditional clothing has always been a symbol of tribal and regional belonging."
Each village or bajrak had small differences in the way the clothing was embroidered, in the colors, or in the type of ornament. In this photo, none of these are visible. From the clothing, one could understand which tribe or country the person was from, what status they had and sometimes even their age. This was especially important in a traditional society like that of Mirdita, where the consciousness of tribe and honor was fundamental. The clothing of Mirdita requires elegance, attitude and respect. When you wear the clothing of the region, you carry the history of your ancestors on your shoulders, so you should wear it with honor, but it is too bad that people have forgotten these morals and do this only for clicks and likes, "says one comment.
Another says: Dragging the sweater of the Mirdita bride who has shown culture, compassion, love and kindness for centuries is the same and no worse than demolishing the centuries-old churches of pure Mirdita, the pride of the nation. Please remove these photos from the internet because they do not show emancipation, they simply
Disrespect towards a region that has known how to preserve the values of being Albanian. Few of you know, but that sweatshirt has the cross of Christ embroidered on the back. Don't take revenge on Mirdita.
"How can you disfigure Mirdita's outfit in this way!? The sweater, the sweatshirt, and the striped shirt are identity, not to disfigure them and drag them for catwalk debauchery," says another commentator.
"The denigration you are trying to make of the traditional dress of Mirdita, one of the national values and one of the few dresses with purely ALBANIAN elements without Ottoman or Slavic influence, is shameful. The denigration you make of such dresses is shameful," another comment reads.
