About
Basic White Girl Tapestry is a type of stereotypical tapestry, often featuring a mandala or a similar design, that is supposedly often hung up in their bedrooms by young females. In memes, the tapestry, particularly a blue and red one with string lights dangling in front, became generally associated with the Basic Bitch archetype and described as a sign that the owner of the room is promiscuous.

The tweet gained over 80 retweets and 220 likes in four years (shown below).
