Part of our heritage collection, this beloved piece is a quintessential example of embroidered Oaxacan art. Created in lightweight 100% cotton manta fabric, these vibrant marigold florals come to life, adorning the neckline and hand sewn throughout the bodice of the blouse. Accented in satin ribbons customary of the region, this blouse is entirely hand made by a co-op of women artisans in Oaxaca. A timeless design, slightly vintage in feeling.

ARTISAN COMMUNITY
The Boho Floral pieces come from a community of makers in Oaxaca, Mexico known for traditional floral hand embroidery dating back generations. This blouse can take over one month to make. Each of these garments are entirely handmade, making each piece a one-of-a-kind work of art.
The designs are made by first hand drawing the floral pattern onto the fabric with pencil. From there, the artisans use a small hoop to stretch the fabric and embroider the designs using selected threads. Once the embroidery is completed, ribbons are added by a secondary group.
