SANTIAGO NONUALCO, EL SALVADOR - APRIL 6: A Salvadoran textile dyer applies a natural indigo dye onto a wrapped cloth at an artisanal clothing workshop on April 6, 2018 in Santiago Nonualco, El Salvador. For centuries the indigo, a natural deep blue dye extracted from the leaves of tropical plants (Indigofera), has been known by the native indigenous of Central America who used the blue tincture to color their fabrics and pottery. Due to the growing demand of natural-based products, clothing workshops have emerged in the country. (Photo by Jan Sochor/Getty Images)
