Picbil Blouse in Natural Indigo 2
Sold Out
//This is a one-of-a-kind work of wearable art created in collaboration with talented weavers in Cobán and Mysa.//
This handwoven new picbil blouse has a flattering V-neck from the natural seam created by the two panels. It is all cotton and woven with a very thin thread that creates this gauze-like beauty. This is a slim-fitting piece that can easily be dressed up or down.
We added our twist by asking Mysa to dip-dye the traditional garment in her natural indigo vat. The subtle gradation of changing hues is shown beautifully on the picbil weave.
To weave the two panels with a traditional backstrap loom with all clean selvages, it takes about one month from start to finish - a laborious feat that only master weavers continue to practice today.
We think this blouse fits like US size S/M.
This blouse was handwoven by Leona.
