China Poblana Gala Outfit - Red Alcatraz

The skirt's embroidery typically features an eagle holding a snake in its mouth, representing the design of Mexico's national coat of arms. 

The outfit is handmade by the artisans of Puebla. The blouse is hand embroidered with plastic beads at the neckline, and the skirt is hand embroidered in sequence, piece by piece. Depending on the design, it takes 2 months to a year to finish an outfit.
