Part 1 and 2 of Aztec women hairstyles. Included are makeup as well that some used – however makeup was frowned upon in Aztec society, but some people applied it. Part of my Mesoamerican fashion series I am continuing. Stay tuned for more. This information comes from the Sahagun’s Florentine Codex and Clavigero’s History of Mexico,

Proud Polynesian, our cultural dance costumes are so beautiful!

SO, as Moanas’ premiere date gets closer and the love for Pokemon sun and moon grows, i’d just like to remind people that THIS is real traditional Polynesian attire (samples of the diversity), and not a simple grass skirt, flower crown and green tube top is proper representation. Please be respectful and mindful.
