The faixa ( (central), [ˈfaj.ʃa] (Valencia), plural faixes) is a traditional Catalan clothing accessory. It is a sash made of a long piece of cloth, worn around the waist and wrapped around several times. During the 19th century, farmers and artisans wore it to protect the lumbar area during work in the fields. The bourgeois used to wear it as a sign of power, with different colours and 3 meters long. Nowadays, it is present in many traditional dances and festivals. This garment was common in Catalan and Occitan areas.
