Woman or girl’s multicoloured, short-sleeved, blouse front. Dense, bold geometric motifs, embroidered in silk and cotton thread, cover the entire surface of the garment, and in most areas completely hide the ground textile, which is made of red cotton. The shoulder area is defined by large floral designs; below the armholes the motifs form an apron effect, with a wide border at the hemline and along the side edges. Mirrorwork, white rickrack and red beaded pompoms are incorporated into the design overall. At the neckline there is a straight, centre-front slit, decorated with triangular dark grey tabs with tie-cords. Tie-cords are also located at the back of the neck. At the back of the shoulders, plain panels of dark red cotton textile are attached. Sleeves are extensions of the shoulder pieces. Sleeve edges and the hem are bound with strips of plain cotton textile trimmed with decorative machine stitching. A label made of off-white cotton textile, printed with a rubber stamp, is attached at the neck edge on the front with a loose running stitch.
Skirt with a long fringe made of numerous thin brown strips of fibres knotted onto a wide, woven, yellow and brown chevron patterned waistband. The fringe is of different lengths. The front, right side has an overlap of a shorter fringe bundle that is tied at the top with different, multi-coloured plastic bands in yellow, blue, pink and orange. There is a loop on one side, one tie on the other.

The narrow end is covered in green coloured plastic.
Two pink coloured circular paper balls are wrapped in plastic, are gathered at the top, and are tied with fibre cording. Cording connects the two circles, is looped in the centre, and ties in a knot. Each end of the grass cord has a tassel.
