This vintage Guatemalan skirt brings together the timeless beauty of corte fabric and the artistry of hand-embroidered huipil textiles in a piece that is as functional as it is striking. The skirt’s base is made from deep indigo blue corte fabric, woven with fine vertical stripes in a rich cobalt hue. The waistband features a vibrant panel of vintage huipil embroidery, with intricate geometric and diamond motifs in bright red, emerald green, vivid fuchsia, sunny yellow, crisp white, and cobalt blue. Each stitch tells the story of Mayan heritage and the hands that crafted it.
Practicality meets heritage with 2 spacious pockets for your everyday essentials, plus a hidden front pocket designed for safekeeping of valuables while traveling or attending events. An elastic back panel ensures comfort and a flexible fit for different body types.
