Santa Lucia Embroidered Guatemalan Tunic - Pink, Fuschia, Wine
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING embroidered tunic from the mountains of Guatemala. This style tunic (or huipil) was originally used in ceremonies and weddings. The detail of the embroidery is exquisite as is the floral detail on the neckline. Truly art to wear.
As a tunic, the Santa Lucia can be worn loose and has a flattering drape that isn't overpowering. We also think it could be amazing when belted and worn over pants or a long skirt!
In the words of our artisan partners: "It is an art that is, unfortunately, dying because the ladies are not wearing the ceremonial huipiles as much as they used to. Our weavers learned this art from their ancestors, so it is difficult to find someone who can weave and embroider in this style".
We are determined to help keep this art alive!
Materials:
Hand-woven cotton, some embroidery includes rayon.
Perspective of size: Tunic shape has a flattering drape, sleeves come well below shoulders. The bottom edge hits below the hips.
Colors: Pink, Fuschia, Wine
Hand-woven and embroidered in Guatemala.
