The neck opening is diamond shaped, and measures 4 1/2” on each of the four sides, with an addition 1″ slit in both the front and back seam to allow more headroom. This intricately woven huipil has the traditional rows of zigzag mountains and triangular patterns of the rivers. The bird and flower design at the shoulders as well as the center panel on both sides are done in the very fine and detailed San Antonio weaving style where the pattern is identical both inside and out. The weaving is incredibly fine, causing this vintage huipil to be wonderfully soft to the touch.
The colors are a full spectrum of green, blue, orange, red, yellow and much more. The design is woven on a red woven cotton base.
