Ladies Traditional Jackets

Women's Trachten jackets – for the second half of the folk festival

The Oktoberfest often starts warm and ends cool. Anyone without a jacket gets cold in the evening or has to leave early. A Trachten jacket solves this problem elegantly – it is not a compromise but a complement that completes the look.

The women's Trachten jacket collection at Dirndl.com includes 21 models: from light transitional jackets for warm autumn afternoons to warmer Janker versions for cool mountain events and cattle drives.

Women's Janker – classically Bavarian

The Janker is the most traditional Trachten outerwear for women and men. It is shorter than a coat, often has decorative buttons, is made from a wool blend or genuine Loden and provides noticeably more warmth than a thin cardigan.

Women's Janker differ from men's Janker in cut and often also in colour: more feminine, with gatherings or button plackets at the front, shorter at the back than the front. Classic colours are green, grey and dark brown. A good Loden Janker lasts for decades.

Loden coat and Trachten coats

For cool autumn events and folk processions in October, a Loden coat is the right choice. It covers the Dirndl completely and keeps you properly warm. Typical Trachten elements are retained: horn buttons, Posament trimmings, green or brown colouring.

Trachten blazer – modern and versatile

Those looking for a younger, more contemporary interpretation will find a good option in Trachten blazers. They combine a structured blazer cut with folk details such as embroidery or typical buttons. Works well with modern Dirndl in shorter lengths.
