The book I borrowed, which was brought back from US. |
And, this description for Frida's monobrow is just beautiful. |
"...She had a fine body, topped by a delicate face. Her hair was long; dark and thick eyebrows met above her nose. They seemed like the wings of a blackbird..." - Diego Rivera, My Art, My Life
I am just obsessed about her monobrow :)
I guess I'm not the only one.
John Galliano showed how he's inspired by this Mexican artist in his Fall Ready-To-Wear 2010 :
Beside that, Karl Lagerfel seems to be Frida Kahlo's fan too, which was shown in his captures of supermodel Claudia Schiffer for one of the issues of Vogue Germany :
She really plays the role well. I feel the strong personality in her eyes with a bit of sadness, like Frida. Karl'd nicely took the pictures too. I like them.
Not only the grand designers, Heidi Klum was in the Frida vibes too?
Haha! Actually no, her makeup was put on by the little boy in a TV show : Seriously Funny Kids.
She might not be Frida's fan, but how about the kid who drew the monobrow? Hmm..
Anyways, that's all I found.
Maybe it's not an easy style to carry. Owh, it's not of course!
Lastly, thanks for sharing!
I enjoy reading the book and I've got so much inspiration from the artist, not only for life and also for fashion! :)
