This anonymous "Woman's Wedding-Festival Blouse" from around 1975 is an example of intricate needlework and traditional craftsmanship from the Indian subcontinent. The blouse is richly adorned with intricate mirror work, embroidery, and colorful patterns. It showcases the use of geometric designs, floral motifs, and vibrant hues, typical of Indian textiles. This piece is a testament to the artistry and cultural significance of traditional clothing in South Asia. The blouse is now part of the Minneapolis Institute of Art's collection.
