Frida Kahlo: Vogue

Frida Kahlo – Vogue México (1939)
In 1939, Frida Kahlo appeared in Vogue Mexico in a striking black-and-white portrait by photographer Toni Frissell. This iconic image captured Kahlo’s powerful presence, unique beauty, and deep cultural identity. Draped in traditional Tehuana attire, her look defied Western fashion norms and highlighted her pride in Mexican heritage. The feature marked one of the earliest moments a Mexican woman—and artist—was represented with such elegance and strength in an international fashion publication, solidifying her as both an art and fashion icon.
