The white cloth is a Turkish style fashion, because Greece after the fall of the Eastern Roman Empire/Byzantine Empire, and before the Greek Independence of 1821-1829, they were part of the Ottoman Empire, the black vest is Greek. The way they dress represents what the first Evzones Company wore and did in the war for independence. example their shoes, the fluffy pom on their shoes symbolized the hidden knife they carried in their shoes. The Evzone were mainly light units and mountain fighters.

It's called "Fustanella". Archaeological evidence shows that the fustanella was already in common use in Greek lands as early as the 12th century. Byzantine warriors, in particular the Akritai, wearing fustanella are depicted in contemporary Byzantine art. This is also confirmed by the Medieval Greek acritic songs and art of the 12th century. The full-pleated fustanella was worn from the Byzantine Akritic warriors originally as a military outfit and seems to have been reserved for persons of importance. It was frequently worn in conjunction with bows, swords, or battle-axes and frequently shown covered with a jointed corselet, or with a vest of chain mail. During the Ottoman period, the fustanella was also worn by Greek klephts and the armatoloi in reverence of Emperor Manuel I Komnenos starting in the 15th centtury A.D . Fustanella was a suitable garment for guerrilla mountain units, thus it was worn by the klephts of the Ottoman period for the same reason it was worn by the akritai warriors of the Byzantine era earlier. The wearing of the fustanella spread throughout the neighboring regions around the 17th century A.D, (Balkans and Anatolia), the most notable non Greeks were the Tosk Albanians who were mostly Christians and philhellenes (advocates for Greek independence from the Ottoman Empire.) .

@@olindodragoti I know, I know. (Pyetja ime ishte retorike). But for all the other ppl inventing some weird stories abt the "Fustanella" and the dresses thay guards wear, the truth is they are based on the most famous fighters of Greek independence, which the Arvanites (meaning Albanian speaking population of Greece). King Otto fell in love with this fighters' costumes and so they became famous in the whole Greece. Now, why these traditional clothes are Albanian and not Greek, it's worthless of pointing it out here, but on thing is for sure, the actual continental Greece in the 12th century had a predominantly Albanian speaking population (actually also in the some islands) in vast areas of Peloponnese, not to mention the region of Epirus. Cheers.

Belonged to Albania

In their distant origins, skirts were about who was not riding a horse---not who was female.

Too cool.

The traditional Albanian dress was stolen by the greeks at the time of the creation of the state after the revolution of 1821 and this was done at the request of King Otto !

It’s not just “Albanian” its a traditional Balkan dress found in Greece and Albania. Just because it’s worn by some Albanians doesn’t mean it’s just ALBANIAN, stop being such malakés.
