DescriptionPart of a Moravian kroj, a white shirt with long sleeves. A narrow band of white embroidery lines the seam between shoulder and sleeve. Its collar is covered with geometric designs in black threading. The shirt's placket opens on the left and its edge is decorated with the same stitching as the collar, along with a line of floral stitching. The stitching swaps colors, making it black on white, roughly four inches from the top and a line of cutwork follows on either side. There is a twill tie on either side of the collar, another on the left shoulder and one on the placket.
