So wonderful! What kind of an outfit is it? Is it traditional for a certain region or does the story take place in a fantasy setting?

Thanks) The story indeed belongs to the fantasy genre, though the outfit itself is common for almost every region of west Russia. This shirt is a basic element of our traditional costume, worn with or without upper-clothing; this particular type is based on married woman's festive costume of Voronezh Province (the central belt of the European part of Russia).
But I wouldn't call it 100% historically accurate — the ornaments a completely made up and the earrings are transformed temple rings, which were worn by slavic women at least 2 centuries earlier)

Very interesting stuff, thanks for explaining.! I thought it looked eastern European, but I couldn't have placed it. The novel must be interesting too .
