Iconic Mexican artist Frida Kahlo continues to garner attention sixty-seven years after her death at age forty-six. When flapper-style dresses and thin eyebrows were in, Frida wore the traditional Tehuana costume of the indigenous women of Oaxaca and embraced her thick eyebrows and faint moustache. Her clothing, her jewelry and her hair all got her noticed. Up for auction is a complete look inspired by her singular style—tiered, ruffled skirt, peasant top, shawl, and coordinating jewelry. The look would also work as a gypsy/fortune teller costume.

The cotton-blend skirt has an elastic waistband (fits 26”-36” waist), four tiers and measures 41” long. The plum-purple, St. John’s Bay peasant blouse with embroidered neckline is a PXL and measures 23” from armpit to armpit and is 25” long. The chartreuse 100% Pashimina shawl (72” X 30”) is a plus on a chilly night. The necklace and matching earrings are one-of-a-kind, made to coordinate with the rest of the outfit.

From a non-smoking home. All of the clothing will arrive clean and fresh to your door.

The slightly higher price on this ensemble is because the skirt has 4 tiers instead of 3--more material, more work.
