Shirt
A large black wool huipil. The edges of the neck opening and the sleeves are embroidered with green thread. At the center of the chest, red, green, and orange yarn are used to form a topknot, from which the ends of the yarn hang like tassels on the exterior of the garment. Most of the tassels are braided and some are wrapped in multicolored threads to form stripes.
