If Frida Kahlo was still alive...

I bet she'd be wearing Prada Resort 2011.

Isn't that top photograph of her amazing? It's my favorite of all the ones I've ever seen. So glad I found it. Maybe I'll turn this into a series. Who else would you like to see?

  3. Me too! Frida Kahlo was such an awesome, vivid woman. I could see her wearing that dress.

  4. thanks for stopping by my blog, and for your sweet comment!

    This is really a wonderful picture of Frieda - and a great sartorial connection. How about Georgia O'Keefe? I always think of her at high summer =)

  5. That's awesome, nice connection. I'd like to see Marie Curie! (sorry, I'm a nerd, but she's so cool.)

  7. I never knew much about her until I watched the film in an art history class. Couldn't stop staring at her wardrobe the whole time!

    And I second Georgia O Keefe :)

  8. sorry but... I don't think Frida Kahlo would ever wear those dresses... Maybe they take inspiration from her amazingness, but nah, she's way more sophisticated than floral prints and blue socks.
