mola (Blouse)

Blouse with reverse appliqué panels (or mola). Torso is made of colourful pieces of fabric that have been cut into intricate linear and zigzag designs and delicately sewn onto a backing panel, creating geometric ‘X’ shape designs. Front and back are nearly identical. Black fabric in a herringbone weave makes up the short sleeves and neck, the openings edged in red and orange. Bottom hem is edged in blue.
