Afghan Burka And Embroidered Cotton Hazara Blouse. Size: 40'' x 54'' (102 x 137 cm); 62'' x 68'' (157 x 173 cm). A study in contrasts! Including a full body dark blue vintage burka, and a bright vintage cotton Hazara blouse. Contrary to men who wear plain-colored clothing, Hazara women often wear brightly colored designs on light garments as they spend much of their time inside. This Hazara blouse has an unbleached cotton base with multicolored designs throughout. It has a small opening down the middle front with a tab that attaches to the back. The abstracted designs are made with counted stitch and are mainly red, yellow, blue and green.
