The Oaxacan Huipil Dress features a relaxed tunic design, typically constructed from multiple pieces of fabric. Depending on the style, it can be made with two or three joined pieces, leaving an opening for the arm. The loose fit of the Huipil is not intended to accentuate body curves, but can be paired with a belt or shawl for added waist definition.
