This huipil (blouse) is made from two pieces of fabric joined together with red cotton and floss silk, which was originally purple but has faded to white. The edge of the neck opening has been turned under and stitched in place with a binding of pale blue silk. A quarter rosette of pale blue silk has been attached to either side of the front opening and a semi-circle of pale blue silk has been attached to the centre back. There are traces of faded purple silk embroidery over both breasts and as the ground fabric beneath this embroidery is undamaged, these are not darns or repairs. They may have been the owner's identification marks.
