The Oaxacan Huipil Blouse - Pinotepa Animalitos is a traditional tunic with a loose, comfortable fit, created by joining multiple pieces of fabric. Depending on the design, it may have two or three pieces joined together, with an opening for the arm. The purpose of a Huipil is not to emphasize body curves, so it is typically worn without a belt or shawl around the waist. Its loose fit allows for easy movement and comfort.
