Skirt c. late 20th century

This piece, titled "Skirt" and created by Lao artist, is an example of traditional textile artistry from the late 20th century. The deep maroon fabric features delicate, woven stripes, emphasizing the craftsmanship of the garment. The skirt's hem and waistband are adorned with elaborate, hand-woven borders in vibrant shades of orange and green, adding a touch of color to the otherwise simple design. The skirt is currently part of the Minneapolis Institute of Art's collection.
