This skirt, likely from an unknown date, is a fine example of Hmong craftsmanship. The skirt is constructed of a black fabric, with rows of red and orange stripes along the bottom. The skirt's bottom hem is adorned with a meticulously embroidered chevron pattern in shades of pink, yellow, and orange, showcasing the Hmong's skilled needlework. The skirt, now housed in the Minneapolis Institute of Art, provides a glimpse into the traditional clothing and textile artistry of the Hmong people.
