A unique vintage velvet hand embroidered huipil (square-cut blouse). This black velvet blouse has an exquisite texture with hand embroidered green flowers and borders. The same pattern adorns both the front and the back.
A huipil remains as the most common traditional garment worn by indigenous women from central Mexico into Central America. These blouses are handmade, one of a kind, each usually taking at least one month to complete. This textile art form has been passed down from generation to generation in Tehuantepec, Oaxaca, Mexico and dates back to pre-Colonial times.
This style of clothing was made popular by the Mexican artist Frida Kahlo and is currently very boho chic. Wear this huipil with your favorite pair of blue jeans, or even display it as part of a wall gallery!
