Handwoven on a Traditional Backstrap Loom by Women Artisans in Chiapas, Mexico
A timeless handwoven huipil, thoughtfully crafted by women artisans from San Andrés Larráinzar, Chiapas, Mexico, using a traditional backstrap loom (telar de cintura).
The entire huipil is woven on the backstrap loom—from the body of the garment to its intricate geometric designs. Once each woven panel is completed, the pieces are carefully hand-sewn together, preserving generations of Maya weaving traditions.
Made from 100% cotton, this huipil is lightweight, breathable, and comfortable to wear. Its relaxed silhouette makes it easy to style with jeans, linen pants, skirts, or even a belt for a more fitted look.
Measurements:
- One Size
- Best fits: Small to Medium, depending on your preferred fit.

*Traditional huipiles are designed with a relaxed, loose fit and are not intended to be worn like a fitted blouse. For the best fit, please compare the measurements above with a similar loose-fitting top you already own.
