<The Romanian dress or Romanian blouse refers to the traditional clothing worn by Romanians. The garments described here largely fell out of use during the 20th century. However, they can still be seen in more remote areas, on special occasions, and at ethnographic and folk events. The Rumanian peasant blouse was made famous by Matisse 's paintings and was an inspiration for fashion designers in Yves Saint Laurent and Gucci collection ( see the 2008 / 2009 Gucci collection inspired by ethnic motives ).La Blouse Roumaine is a painting by Henri Matisse from 1940>
