 Santiago Atitlan Guatemala Huipile

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!!!                            last  updated June 3, 2005
