Made in Mexico


The Rebozo, is the traditional Mexican shawl, that was famously worn by Mexican artist, Frida Khalo. It has now also become the centre of a new exhibition at the Fashion and Textiles Museum entitled MADE IN MEXICO The Rebozo in art, culture and fashion. The exhibition explores how fashion and textiles has shaped and promoted Mexican Culture from the 17th Century to the present day, on a world wide basis. The exhibition will be in London from early June, until the end of October and will show the works of Brazilian and UK artists, Photographers, fashion and textiles designers and will also showcase recent works that have been inspired by the classic shawl. 

This is definitely something I hope to see during the summer this year.
