This woman's costume is from the Mixtec ethnic group located in Jamiltepec, Oaxaca, and is made up of various components in cotton and in an old style, made on a backstrap loom with brocade elements of geometric shapes and embroidered details at the neckline. The skirt is woven in two pieces on the waist loom. Originally, the woman would have been naked from the waist and her huipil would cover her like a shaw. Due to cultural changes, they now encourage the use of an apron made from raw cotton for covering the woman’s chest. There is a woven belt to hold up the skirt. And finally, the small spindles that are made of wood and painted in various colors are vestiges of the history of this community's past as a center for the production of spindles.
