Mexican Fashion

Hey fellow adventurers! We’re talking about fashion again! Living so close to Mexico, I’m not unfamiliar with Mexican fashion. It’s very colorful, fun and full of gorgeous designs. I love it! However, like India, how one dresses in Mexico depends on what part of Mexico they’re from. People from reclusive villages tend to dress in more traditional wear while those that live in bigger cities, tend to wear modern western style clothing.

Although mainly worn for celebrations and festivals rather than every day, here are some of the fashion styles that remain popular today:

Huipil

A huipil is an embroidered loose fitting, colorful blouse.

Quechquemitl

A quechquemitl is a garment similar to a poncho that is worn over the shoulders.

Rebozo

A rebozo is a scarf-like garment usually folded or wrapped around the head and/or upper body.

Puebla Dress

A puebla dress is a traditional style Mexican dress.

Sombrero

A sombrero is a broad-brimmed felt or straw hat.

Charro suit

A charro suit is a heavily embroidered jacket, tightly cut trousers and a sombrero.

Though today, it’s a lot more common to see people wearing jeans and shirts/blouses. For those of you who are interested in Mexican fashion, here’s a good sum up of Mexican fashion brands: https://theculturetrip.com/north-america/mexico/articles/top-mexican-fashion-brands/
