scanno costumeAs well as being famous for the beauty of its lake and its mountains, Scanno has long been known for the wonderful costume worn by local women. At the end of last century, when the first tourist and scholars reached the village, they were attracted by the women's costume and by their homes, in the fields and in the woods.It is said that the women's costume is black further to a church regulation. In fact, maybe local women prefer using the black wool of their sheep for their dresses, partially doing without the expensive dyeing process.

Older women still the woolen cloth costume which is weaved by hand.The costume consists of big pleated skirt and a bodice(the"comodino"), a cloth scarf with silver buttons which covers their breast (the "pettiglia"),a pillow lace for their neck, a small hat of different colours (the "cappellitto") composed of the black "tocca", the "fasciatoio" and the "violitto", nd finally light shoes ("scarfuori").

The wedding dress, which is dotal property for the women and whose tradition dates back to the Middle Ages, has the same cut as the costume but the colours are bright.

The "Catenaccio" is a procession of couples dressed with the typical local costume similar to the one of the bride and groom used in the past, when they would go to the church and late in the evening, after the wedding banquet, to their new home with a band accompaniment.
This procession takes place every year on 14th August with a parade which winds medieval lanes, where only the tourist flashes violate the dim light and the peace of the village.
