The wear of the Sokac in Mohács was bought by Bosnians and the Sokac in the villages. This phenomenon became so widespread that they left almost thoroughly their traditional, laboursome shirt and skirt decorated with high stitches and they started to wear and make shirts decorated with sequins and freely-drawn embroidery. Traditional clothing can be found only at elderly people of the villages. The brilliant costume of Croatians in Baranya can be seen only on stages today. 64
