Bolivian Native Dress From Geographic Magazine
The Indian women are described as ingenious and industrious with vivid color taste in embroideries. They wear distinctive home made costumes with Panama hats, layered skirts revealing jewelry and native shoes in bright colors. They use petticoats, lace, and shawls, plus woolen trousers, white drawers, knitted caps, and day wear with a poncho for cold weather in New Granada.
