My Dress Hangs There: Frida Kahlo as Fashion Icon

- Kahlo’s unique personal style blended aspects of German-Mexican heritage with a carefully crafted sartorial persona. These images are immortalized in countless self-portraits, but her wardrobe was locked away until 2004. Hear how its recent unveiling has allowed for a more intimate exploration of how she constructed a distinctive look that continues to inspire us today.

I honestly thought I'd only get through 5 min and move on but this was very interesting and insightful. Viva Frida!! ✊🇲🇽
Funny considering Frida couldn't stand the flower headdress, the Mexican dress of the low class, the jewelery, none of it. She hated it. She only dressed that way for her husband. Frida liked to dress as a man and keep her hair short. She hasn't been gone that long. How people whom knew her could allow these fools to misrepresent her is beyond me.
I saw the film in a restored theater on Bainbridge Island then visited an exhibition in Seattle the next day. Later that night I read her biography. I've never been quite the same.
We are so proud of our culture in México.
Freda lives in us all!
Such a beautiful lecture wow💕I think Frida would be very proud to see how she’s inspired so much and so many.
brilliant. thank you. she is a great educator / presenter,
Very interesting thank you for giving a very through seminar. I never get tired of hearing about Frida!
There is sufficient clarity in this presentation. Insightful, there is tasteful humour with pertinent references. Well thought out. Do appreciate the style theme in relation to her history and suffering. Unique yet identifiable in that unconscious.
Thank you for uploading this material. Really interesting facts and well-performed research.
Excellent. Putting Frida in this historical context is fascinating and informative. Thank you.
Wow. Very interesting and very informative. Thank you for putting this video.
This is amazing. Thank you for posting.
Thank you. I have been quire inspired today following this talk
This was very interesting and just another reason to be a Frida fan.
July 6, 2021. Celebrating Frida Kahlo's birthday by painting her portrait. Thank you for this detailed, respectful look at the life of Frida..
Such a yummy unique account of this icon... thank you so much.
Excellent lecture thank you
fascinating! Thank you very much
Many thanks for uploading this captivating presentation. Many thanks to Ms. Finamore. I have watched this video for at last three times, because I have always been fascinated by Frida Kahlo. I didn´t want to comment actually, but since we are listening to this presentation, which focuses a great part on clothes, design and fashion, I thought it is worth mentioning that the designer Lena Hoschek (mentioned at 4:13) is Austrian, not German. She was born in Graz, Austria.
I'm pretty sure, if not absolutely positive that Madonna talked about Frida since she began her career...I'm sure nobody would want to give Madonna credit for this, but she was the most famous woman on earth for 20+ years (still is if you ask me) and if you follow the trail, Madonna works with EVERY one of those Fashion designers, and I'm sure made most of this revival possible.
What’s more impressive is that she is called as the most famous female painter in the last century.
Viva Frida Kahlo siempre. April 10. 22
I can't believe she did NOT finish reading her husband's autobiography!!!
Interesting talk. Would she enjoy being a celebrity today? It's uncomfortable seeing her turned into a commodity today.
Yes-i am disgusted by these people that have just turned her into a commodity and speaking about her like some sort of thing to be sold
Whats cool is coco chanel was responsible for most of these developments in fashion at this time.
Lena Huschek is an Austrian designer . There is a difference between Germany and Austria.
I think the speaker did not present Frida kahlo as she would have wanted. They should have had a Hispanic- American, to truly speak. Frida had so many portraits of her self and others portraits that should have been truly expressed. Frida was an iconic person. Someone who deserved to have her name and portraits pronounced properly. Her life to many is an example, she was before her times.
The presenter got the location of Tehuantepec wrong😭
Women from Tehuantepec are Zapotec people.
Mestiza not mestitza
I know.. I’m kind of confused. It’s very informative and I love me some frida.. but this lady seems like she doesn’t really know much about what she’s saying, or about the subject.
Here's a presentation on Frida's politics: th-cam.com/video/SdtKOfEs32o/w-d-xo.html

Come on folks...get it right!
It's Frida ...not Freda!
@Tomás she changed the spelling of her name from the German spelling 'Frieda' during the rise of Nazim in attempt to de-emphasise her german heritage, she from then on used the spelling 'frida' much more frequently
Love Frida. Short attention span here. TMI.
Love the information but if your a public speaker "um" should not be the prominent word in your vocabulary.
INDIGENOUS NOT INDIAN
Peasant, you are the Peasant. Tribal tehuana of the tehuantepec is the heart of matriarchal tribal sovereign tribal nations. Peasant latin x be gone.
Yes see wore customs. Tribal people do not were customs. She did not represent tribal people. She represented herself, jewish and communist. Sovereign Tribal nations are not part of any hispanic new age movement.
She wasn’t “Mexican indian” and white. She was Native American and white.
Her mother was of Spanish and Mexican Indian Descent & her father was Hungarian & Jewish Descent.. Frida Kahlo Was Absolutely Mexican In Every Way & Right. From the Blood In Her Veins, To The Very Land She Was Created And Birthed In. Do Your Research Before Speaking. If you know anything of Frida is that she was proud of her background, culture and roots. People always want to take everything and everyone who is great, to try and white wash the hell out of them.
Viva La Vida. Viva La Frida.
native american as in indians from the USA ?
@@whoahorseywhoa4685 US is only part of the American continent not all of it. It's called United States OF AMERICA.
Her mother was either meztisa or castisa, but her dad was in reality was a native of northern Germany and protestant and was not jewish nor Hungarian, Frida lied zbout his background to guard him from the backlash that Germans had faced in Latin America from the Nazi hatred
What an insult to Khalo.. to depict winehouse as Khalo ...... as if !!
Um. Really. I agree big no no as a speaker. Need Hispanic for true pronunciation. Too many um''s. Bye.
Many, many of your facts are incorrect. Get it right. Frida at least deserves that. Shameful...
