The patterns on this blouse are created using a technique known as "deshilado", by removing threads to create the patterns. The short sleeves also have this "lace like" design running down the sides....  This 100% cotton blouse was handmade by Purepecha Indian Women from Michoacan Mexico.   Until recently i've only been able to acquire this type of blouse when traveling in Michoacan, but now have a new source... I will be listing more of these blouses shortly, so check my Ebay Store for a greater assortment... 

The Blouse measures 16 inches across the bodice.  And 25 inches from armpit to armpit (50 inches all around) and 34 inches Long.  

It will fit a Medium to Large size woman.
