Two red panelled Huipil woven on a back strap loom, alternated with green, blue, orange, cuyuscate and white thin warp stripes every two inches. The neckline is cut out and decorated with hand embroidered multicolour mercerized cotton and silk threads. These patterns symbolize the sun and the moon. Two round green fabric decorations are sewn on each side, which represents the two phases of the moon. Cotton embroidery called “randa” joins the two panels. All the colours are chemical dyes.
