The braided hair, the marked eyebrows, the long dresses embroidered with butterflies and parrots, the majestic pleated skirts, the three-piece suits worn by Frida Kahlo from the age of 19, “transgressing her femininity to claim above all her intellectual independence.”

Dior's Cruise 2024 collection, presented in Mexico — a “soulful place” in the words of Maria Grazia Chiuri — was a tribute to the country's tradition and to “the most important feminist artist in the world.”
