Frida is An Interminable Global Style Symbol

Half a century after her heart-wrenching death, Mexican artist and internationally renowned style symbol Frida Kahlo continues to inspire us. She paved the way for the conception of countless art shows, exhibits, web sites, scripts, and fashion designs. From furniture to mouse pads and other mementos, you can see her dignified face and trademarks all around Mexico and the world. The United States even considered her as an undoubtedly overwhelming icon in pop American culture that the postal service commemorated Kahlo in a collector's stamp worth 34 cents. That makes her the very first Mexican-native female to receive much exaltation for her works and influence in her hometown and in the neighboring Americas.

This thing they refer to as "Fridamania" was born in the 90s. A decade later, there was only more cause for wingding when the screenplay|film "Frida" was released. Highly recognized motion picture director Hayden Herrera captured the essence of the Mexican heroine on film, which inspired millions of admirers. In this film, one will realize the importance of steadfastness amidst physical and emotional difficulties. Kahlo had a serious illness at the age of six and suffered a horrible accident when she was 18. But this didn't stop her from doing what she felt strongly for -- meeting endearing people and living the best way she knew how.
