    Description

    I recently got in a shipment from Puebla
    with a group of traditional blouses....
    . This one was was
    made in the Nahua community of Tlaola in Puebla Mexico
    .  U
    sing a technique called
    Relleno
    the artist has created stylized floral images on the front, back and sleeves in
    shades of blues and greys.
    This extraordinary blouse was made by a woman named
    Justina (sorry i don't have a last name)
    . The
    embroidery is done in cotton threads and the body of this blouse is a T
    aupe colored Rayon fabric, that drapes beautifully.
    It measures;
    17 inches across the shoulders and 24 inches from arm pit to arm pit (total 48 inches around) and 29 inches Long.
    It will fit a Large Size woman.
    This Blouse is a wonderful example of
    contemporary fashion trends
    such as; South Western, Frida Kahlo, Hippie, Santa Fe, Peasant, Boho Chic, Cow Girl Style!
    Hand Wash
