In these group pictures it is clear that the rebozo and apron are part of the traditional costume. But what really stands out is the assortment of types and designs here in Xochitlan. Afterward we went with a weaver to see her products. There is a picture of her loom and her home and alter. The belts are not obvios in the costume but are an important part of the total costume.
