Wearing bloomers of blue with white to form an interlace design. A complete modern cultural dress ensemble.

The fabric is made of heavier and more durable cotton, weight between that of burlap and linen; rust coloring of the waist belt matches part of the scarf that wraps her hair whereas the other part of the scarf bears the same interlace design of the bloomers but in black with white interlace design. Her neck is strong without movement.
