Zhuang Women’s Indigo Blouse with Diagonal Placket Details

This blouses applied the Zhuang-style applique embroidery, a technique by pasting cut-outs made of leftover patches in various colors on the foundation fabric and then fixed with chain stitches along the borders. On this garment, appliques of dragons and clouds were firstly glued onto the foundation weave, and then fixed with densely-arranged chain stitches along the edges. The central area of this piece is occupied by the main motifs with a bight palette and simple but eye-catching forms, serving as highly-decorative elements to the entire garment.
