All women from the Triqui tribe in Oaxaca own the typical, mainly red, handmade huipil. It is woven by the women themselves on a hip loom and consists of three, long strips, which are sewn together. Then a hole is cut out for the head, the sides are joined and the seams and head opening are odorned with contrasting satin ribbons.
