Costume has continued mainly in the sub-Carpathian regions from Gorj, through Vâlcea and Argeş to Dâmboviţa counties. In Polovragi on the border of Gorj and Vâlcea the costume is the "black and white" found on the other side of the mountains in Marginimea Sibiului. Both double apron women's costumes and wrap-round fota are found in Argeş. Valea Danului, Arefu and Domneşti are in the north of Argeş on the edge of the Carpathians. Băbeni and Făgetelu are a little further south in the foothills.
