Im an definetly not an expert, but these dont look like “folk” costumes, maybe just typical clothes of the time? They have no embroidery or flowers or stripes which are typical in most “folk” costumes, so its hard to pin point a region to these outfits
kraków i’d say. or generally mountain area/southern poland

I think it’s from a rural region of Poland/s
kraków somewhere
There are two options.
This is just styling for regional costumes. Why? White shoes and white socks indicate that this is a pretty fresh photo. No peasant family could afford such luxuries as white shoes in the old days. The rest of the costume is therefore only a reference to the national costume.
Or it is the costume of children who do not yet have the proper national costume.
Ok, there is also the third option. I have no idea. It may be the outfit of a smaller social group.
The rest is sort of non-descript hodge podge and probably church/choir/school outfits, as someone mentioned. But it is very hard to narrow it down to a region because of lack of details.

These are examples of regional folk costumes https://images.app.goo.gl/iHGXntcAB7VgbkL17
Aren’t those folk costumes from Tatra Mountains? Might be wrong though
Silesia?
Not entirely sure, but you might be able to match them against one of these reference sources maybe?

The ribbons on skirts look a bit like [Rzeszów ](https://images.app.goo.gl/9fB2gKWcFyUiCXX88)
Head scarfs are similar to [Łowicz](https://images.app.goo.gl/w7KHsLotVs2uHsHJ9) But these are highly sylized.
