	Folk costumes
		Bunads, on the contrary, are reconstructed and re-designed — sometimes very nearly purely invented costumes designed from the early 20th century onwards, and are used at formal occasions such as Christmas Eve, Constitution Day (17 May), weddings and other major social events, although not at funerals: bunads are bright and joyful garments.
		The Bunad and Folk Costume Council, on the contrary, states that "The main objective in our day and age is that the bunad should be as good a copy as possible of a local folk costume as it was used in a particular historical period".
		Marketing and selling bunads does not in itself challenge the distinction between commercialism and tradition, and the continued validity of the distinction becomes evident when the unspoken but essential connection between a cultural practice and a marketing strategy is severed.
