Frida






Ever since watching the biographical film of Frida Kahlo, I have been gaining a small obsession with her.  I've been meaning to find out more information about the Mexican artist, when I came across these photos from The Vintage Festival Facebook page.  You can see more photos from the new exhibition being held at the Frida Kahlo Museum in Mexico in this article by The Daily Mail.  It turns out some of the clothes on display are by designers who have been inspired by the artist including Ricardo Tisci and Jean Paul Gaultier.

Found this lovely seventies fabric in Portugal.  Soon to be a pair of high waisted shorts with a scalloped hem.
