The Almilla is the dress adopted by indigenous women in the sixteenth century tailored from hand-woven wool cloth (bayeta). It consists of a gathered skirt attached to a fitted bodice. The urku is a pleated or gathered skirt characterized by a bold stripe pattern arranged horizontally. The aksu is a women's ceremonial dress woven from camelid fiber and constructed from a rectangular, two-piece cloth that is wrapped around the body and tied at the waist. May be dyed with natural or synthetic dyes in all colors. Average size is one square meter.
