mola (Blouse)
Physical description
Blouse with reverse appliqué panels (or mola). A small sugar sack is used as the torso of the blouse, and has been decorated with geometric designs incorporating triangles, circles, and zigzag lines in yellow, orange, black and dark red. Molas on back and front are similar but not identical. The bag’s zipper remains, sitting on the left side of the torso. Synthetic fibre in a dense purple, pink and black flower pattern have been made into pleated sleeves and neck, and bottom hem of the shirt. Yellow piping surrounds cuffs and neck.
