Figure 5.20Native Huichol girl.Most contemporary indigenous peoples do not wear head-to-toe ethnic garb on a daily basis. Those who live in cities or regularly interact with the majority society may adopt Western-style dress full time. Others, perhaps those who live in smaller villages or those who do not interact often with the majority society, may blend indigenous and Western styles. Some indigenous peoples view indigenous clothing as a mark of ethnic pride and wear it daily regardless of their place of residence or level of interaction with the majority society. This Huichol girl blends a baseball cap with traditional dress, itself a blend of European and indigenous materials and styles. The Huicholes are residents of western Mexico.(Susana Valadez/ Huichol Center.)
