Peruvian Quechua People Display Doll

This doll is dressed in the traditional clothing of Quechua women living in the Chinchero area of the Andes.

The traditional dress worn by Quechua women today is a mixture of styles from Pre-Spanish days and Spanish Colonial peasant dress. Many pieces of clothing make up the total costume. A small rectangular shoulder cloth, called "lliclla," is fastened at the front using a "tupu," a decorated pin. A large rectangular carrying cloth, called "k'eperina," is worn over the back and knotted in front. Children and goods are securely held inside. Colorful skirts, called "polleras" or "melkkay" in Quechua, are made from handwoven wool cloth. Women may wear three to four skirts in a graduated layer effect. Often the hem of each skirt is trimmed with a stripe of handmade ribbon. Hats, called "monteras," vary tremendously throughout the communities in the Andes. Often it is possible to identify the village from which a women comes from just by the type of hat she wears.
