This is a list of national costumes, mainly bunads, worn by either members of the Norwegian people or members of the Sami people of Norway or members of the Kven people of Norway.

Rural clothes vs. folk costumes

{{Main|bunad}}

Bunad is a Norwegian umbrella term encompassing a range of both traditional rural clothes mostly dating to the 19th and 18th centuries as well as 20th-century folk costumes. In its narrow sense, the word bunad refers only to clothes designed in the early 20th century that are loosely based on traditional costumes. The word bunad is in itself a 20th-century invention.

The Sami people use their distinctive traditional costumes, especially on festive occasions. Kven people also have their traditional Finnish inspired clothing.

Bunads by province

The term drakt is used for the ensemble of clothing worn by either a man or a woman. In some districts the folk costume will be called drakt, and in other districts the term bunad has taken precedence.
