1, 5, 6 and 7 are definitely robes that could also be worn in current South Albania. 3 is a bit different I think, and 4 has some parts that are similar to south Albania. 2 I think it is more Aromanian than Arvanite tbh.

Yes, these specific costumes in the photos could absolutely pass as Albanian. The coin jewelry, embroidery, and overall structure are fully consistent with Albanian regional styles, including those shared with Arvanites.

The colors used from Albanians, Arvanites and Arberesch are yellow gold, black, red and white. Decorations with gold coins (nobles), gold threads are the norm

Only the one before the last (6) looks kinda Albanian (I guess it’s from north Greece), the rest not really.

Arvanites are assimilated, yet their atire is still around. Don’t Greeks have atire themselves? Or they look too Anatolian and Levantine.

You need to know that’s the Balkans used to be called Illyrian before migrants settled inside the Illyrian territories. They adopted the clothing that’s Ilyrians were already wearing.
So all these variations that you see, are all Illyrian.
