Description
The Pollera. It is the name of the female national dress of Panamanian women. It has Spanish roots of the 18th century (possesses the 49 original stitches of each Spanish province). The dress consists of shirt, skirt and two petticoats. Here is a view of the front of the skirt. The figures were handmade by the mending and the draught. Used thread with degradation of tones. A skirt made by a single woman may take a year to be completed. This dress is a gem. Actual design includes orchids, butterflies, and a large plant branch.
