with their stylish design and comfortable fit, this T-shirt is sure to turn heads while showing support for local businesses!The introduction of the Singer sewing machine at the start of the 20th century generated a fashion on the Isthmus of Tehuantepec (in the state of Oaxaca), for geometric designs, densely worked in chain stitch. Patterned cotton cloth of this type, printed with floral and other designs, was often imported from the English city of Manchester.
Worn in two ways, it resembles a small huipil with a ruffled collar and a wide frill along the bottom.
The rabona, a lighter style with a pleated flounce of the same material, was also worn by Kahlo, and remains a popular item of everyday wear on the Isthmus. The owner would have worn it like a South American poncho; alternatively, he could have draped it over his shoulders like a cloak. This huipil was woven in three widths from white cotton thread, with alternating bands of plain and gauze weaving. Two panels, individually woven with a cotton warp and a wool weft, were seamed together to leave a central opening for the head. The sarape, an overgarment widely worn by men in rural areas, reached its zenith during the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
