Santiago Atitlan -
This Santiago Atitlan hupil is beautifully
embroidered with many birds and flowers around the neck. The work is done on
two hand-woven panels of a light lavender blue. They have salvage ends on two sides and the
other two sides are hemmed. The
sides are open so could be used as a poncho or easily stitched closed.
The head hole just fits over my 22" head (at widest point). The huipil shows light wear by Dolores whose huipil it was. She is shown below with her
Grandchildren. The used huipils
condition is very good with very few loose threads and light wear.

Fitting
Tips --- Huipils were traditionally made on a loom. Thus they are made of rectangular pieces
and are not intended to be a fitted garment. The width of the garment should be
considerably larger (at least 25 to 33%) than the shoulders of the wearer.
Think about room to grow too! Mayan women often put tucks in a huipil's shoulder
then remove them as a child grows.
Neck and head hole openings
on Huipils are often small. Note that we can not
guarantee that the neck size of a Huipil fits you and your child.
If you want to wear some huipils you may have to open the neck opening and
lightly stitch it. This is especially true of
Huipils that have been woven on a back-strap
loom. Please check your neck and head measurements
carefully!!!
