Frida Kahlo: Fashion Icon










As  I have been conducting preliminary research for my Senior Fashion Line, I've stumbled upon artist,  Frida Kahlo. Since I was young, I have always gravitated towards her unique beauty, tortured soul, and strong sense of self femininity. Her interest in traditional Central American dress is timeless- especially considering that most women were obsessing over Coco Chanel and other prevalent fashion houses at the time. She remained true to herself, her heritage and her own aesthetic. 


"There have been two great accidents in my life. One was the trolley, and the other was Diego. Diego was by far the worst."
