The xhubleta is a garment that survived from ancient times exclusively in Albanian inhabited territories,[1] and it is a unique type of dress for its particular shape, structure, and decorating system.[2] There are two types of xhubleta: one is narrow and the other is large.[2]
This Albanian garment was included in the List of Intangible Cultural Heritage in Need of Urgent Safeguarding by UNESCO in 2022.[3][4]
