Abstracts in English 225 By the end of the 19 l h century, the "Matyó" folk wear has evolved, upon the influence of intensifying local changes, into completely individual local clothing with a strong rustic taste. By this time, the characteristic appearance of the female wear can be identified: this characteristic bell-shaped form enlarging at the ankles will be generated by the skirt left to be long and arranged in small pleats completed by two petticoats, in strong contrast to other contemporary rustic folk wears with knee-high short skirts applying many petticoats. It was especially the female clothing with its upper part and head-wear showing tiny little details, taking a final arrangement after a series of changes, which has evolved into completely unique "Matyó" clothing; and the set of forms and colours characteristic of the male wear has been created in the same way. The traditional clothing of women - taking up further modifications upon the influence of local fashion but preserving its basic character until the process of shedding the traditional clothes in the nineteen fifties - has always reflected in an expressive way, with its tiny details the social standing, the age of its wearer, furthermore the occasion and the different holidays when the person appeared in the clothes. The "Matyó" Museum is an important public collection of the country town Mezőkövesd situated in Borsod-Abaúl-Zemplén County (North-Eastern Hungary). The most important stock of the cultural heritage of the "Matyó" people is held and exhibited here. By a close scrutiny of the archive material of photographs, the changes of this colourful wear with a strong character which developed in the second half of the years 1800 can clearly be traced through the successive generations. The order and system of wearing of the different age groups determined by the community can easily be specified.
