II. READING
Cholita fashion: bowler hats and sexy ankles
The outfit
Because Bolivia is so culturally diverse, there is no “typical Bolivian clothing”. Outfits differ
according to region, climate, income levels and personal choice. In La Paz, a Cholita’s outfit is
usually comprised of the following components: El Sombrero The bowler hat, the most
recognizable part of the Cholita’s outfit, is worn to signify the marital status of a woman. Story has
it that the bowler hat was originally intended for railway engineers working in Bolivia. La Pollera
The pleated skirt achieves its voluminous look by using up to 8 meters of colorful cloth. The skirt
reaches all the way down to the ankles, considered to be the most attractive part of a woman by
many Bolivians. The skirt also has to be really high up to make the girl’s bottom look big; another
desirable trait in Bolivia. Las Enaguas Under the skirt you will find colorful, multi-layered petticoats
helping to give the skirt as much ‘puff’ as possible. La Blusa The blouse is usually lacy and can be
worn with either short or long-sleeves according to the climate. La Manta Around the shoulders the
girls wear a thick shawl, typically made from llama or alpaca wool. The shawl is made with one color,
and pinned together in the front with a long stick pin or large safety pin. Los Calzados Girls used to
wear European ankle boots but now they wear flat shoes with a rounded toe, similar to a ballet flat.
Joyas Cholitas accessorize their outfits with earnings and brooches.
