It could have been made in Latin America and brought here, or made here, Bolzano, by someone from Latin America. I guess either Bolivia or Peru.

Lived in Latin America for a while and brought here by someone who moved to live in Bolzano. I migrated! Im pretty sure the person was a woman.
Fun Fact

Clothing Law
People migrate with their culture, clothes are part of it. It is important to empower those patterns, materials and styles in the new country or the new home to be able to still feel at home wherever they are. My goal is: Empower people to keep their "home clothes" and to take care of them as it is part of who we are
Statement
I believe I deserve a seat in the PoSF to give voice to the garment who migrated (the immigrants) along with the people. They represent the culture and part of that home (heart) that they left behind.
