Made almost exclusively by women, these textiles include “molas” (embroidery from Guatemala and Panama), “huipiles” (shawls from southern Mexico and Guatemala) and “aguayos” (alpaca wool shawls from Bolivia and Peru). “Molas” are cloth panels made of brightly coloured pieces of fabric sewn together to depict animals or a landscape. They can then be used to decorate colourful traditional blouses. “Huipiles” and “aguayos” are woven on looms with a narrow geometrical border and sometimes show ritual animals and objects, or even entire stories. In pre-Columbian times such textiles were worn as ceremonial costumes, given as gifts, offered up to the gods and buried with the dead. Today they are used in everyday accessories, such as blankets, trimmings, handbags and shoes, and “huipiles” and “aguayos” are used for carrying loads (and babies).* * *I adj textile atrII mpl:textiles textiles* * *textil adj & nm: textile* * *textil adj textile -
