This article addresses the poetic inflection of the last decade in Peruvian poetry; At the same time, it proposes that, in this period, there has been a notable shift in writing by women as an expression of a period characterized by “empolleramiento”. We maintain that this turn is characterized by irreverence, by the hybrid management of forms and by a unique way of tuning into reality. Our study focuses on three creators: Gloria Alvitres, Karuraqmi Puririnay and Lourdes Aparición. To analyze their texts, we appeal to a concept associated with Andean clothing, namely: the skirt. Thus, brooding will be used as an inclusive notion in which the situation of women who are not in the center, who are not part of the canon and who were despised by political power is described and the characteristics of these emerging poetics are examined
