	The Timeshare Beat: It's Your World; The Dirndl- Tradition and Trend
		Originally, the dirndl was the working dress of female servants (Austrian "dirn": maid, maidservant); hence the term "dirndl" as an abbreviation of "Dirndlgewand" (maid's dress).
		Today the wearing of the dirndl is generally regarded as a sign of national pride; in material, color and shape it is increasingly subject to modern influences.
		Wearing a dirndl is a most feminine allure, and the décolleté a very important part of the glamourous view of these dresses.
