    Jacket, vest.

    Made from barkcloth and cotton thread. The vest is made from one long piece of woven barkcloth textile that has been folded over and sewn together at the sides and trimmed at the front centre for a neck hole and opening. The barkcloth textile is supported by horizontal stitches and stitches along the edges. Strips of barkcloth along the hem of the jacket create tassels. Above the hem is an indigo cotton band of design of triangles and diamonds sewn in to the bark cloth
