Happy birthday FridaKahlo ! How this style icon, original selfie queen used fashion for expression and politics:
I just came back from visiting the Art Gallery of Ontario's wonderful exhibit, Frida & Diego: Passion, Politics and Painting in Toronto. The tagline was"He painted for the people. She painted to survive." It was a multi-media exploration of their dramatic relationship and how their personal lives or politics affected their art.
What struck me from a style fashion standpoint was how important details like hairstyle, accessories and fashion were in the crafting of her personal in art and for the public. In tribute to her ethnic background and politics, she adopted a style of dress that was inspired by her native Mexican and indigenous culture. In photographs that were taken of Diego and her, or in portrait photos by other artists, she always had elaborate flower headdresses entwined in braids.
