Chiapas Embroidered Blouse

Aguacatenango Chiapas beautiful artisan-made blouse

Traditional hand-made embroidered blouse from Aguacatenango, Chiapas. An extremely versatile blouse that can be styled in many different ways. It can be dressed up or worn casually. The choice is yours.

For the everyday look or the office outfit, this blouse fits perfectly. It gives a unique touch to any look with its colorful and well-made embroidery.

It is made with corrugated fabric from 100% cotton, which means it’s an environmentally friendly garment. Because it is made with cotton, it is the perfect garment to wear in spring and summer; and all year round for those of us who live in warm climate zones.

This blouse is 100% handmade. The artisan first prepares and cuts out the fabric, then draws directly onto the canvas and carefully embroiders each design. After the canvas is fully embroidered, the artisan puts all the pieces together by hand to finally give shape to the blouse—a process that takes a minimum of one week.

Although plagiarized often, this type of blouse is one of the traditional garments Aguacatenango women wear. Unfortunately, most consumers are not aware when purchasing plagiarized garments, and therefore designer companies use this to their advantage to continually appropriate indigenous designs from all over the Americas.

One of the most important things to mention is that this blouse comes in a wide variety of embroidery styles. It is a unique piece that will rarely be duplicated.
