Countrywoman’s Costume Typical of Ibiza

Ibiza

Embroidered cotton blouse, basquine in black broadcloth, it closes at the bust with a chord and straps that are fitted with drawstrings, apron that is lavishly adorned at the top, over-sleeves and a wide-brimmed hat decorated with flowers.

Donation from Concepción Loring (Marquesa de la Rambla).

The ensemble has an historical precedent in the 15th century, specifically this type of high-waisted basquine was very popular among the maids of that period.
