2. In the old days...
Tricana Poveira was the fisherman's
wife who fished in the northern seas.
The husband was not a fisherman in our
sea, the tricana did not sell fish, and for
that reason he dedicated himself to
sewing, working in canneries, etc.,
allowing them to wear graceful clothes,
distinguishing himself before the women
of other fishermen.
3. The Tricanas Costumes
The elegant pocketed tricanas suit was:
Silk blouse;
Black skirt, covering the knees;
Slender apron rolled with colorful designs of
beautiful effect. It was the most characteristic piece
of the costume, and also the most colorful;
Silk stocking that had on the back a stitching line
that came from the ankle;
Beautiful slim heels made by skilled artisans.
4. The costume of the female figures
that are part of the raids is inspired
by the old pocketed tricanas:
beautiful and graceful in their
sobriety. The main accessories like
the rolled up apron, a faded skirt, a
blouse, like silk stockings with
stripe and slippers. As peças de
vestuário de hoje são mais
elaboradas.

5. In the parade, there is something much more colorful
and grandiose with the dances of a destination, but
they are completely modified with an original clothing.
The most exuberant and essential piece used in the
raids is the apron. The used slippers are not exactly
the same as the old ones, but they have large
proportions of the original model. With all this
elegance, the tricana poveira is remembered with
high elegance and extravagance on the night of the
raids.
