Frida Kahlo’s Hidden Wardrobe Unlocked After Almost 50 Years

That's an interesting design

Love them

These are traditional earrings from Guanajuato Mexico. Probably a present

Wow! Stunning :-)

Beautiful!

Had no idea she was an amputee. That fact that she was able to design her own prsostethis is amazing.

Love the lace-ups

Fashionable till the end

Love these boots, she was brilliant !

Love the little bells.

I want some

Hipsters would be jealous.

So cool

Beautiful design and color.

Woooow ...

As a chronic pain sufferer, I can confirm that this is a great coping strategy. If I feel like c**p I dress to the nines. It actually helps!

The colors are still vibrant.

Getting lost in creating something can let your mind escape pain that your body can not get away from!!! I have been in a lot of pain for over 15 years. I asked to get in a pain management program as soon as I was told in would not go away a d learned quickly that keeping your mind busy is a must. If you don't your mind starts playing ugly games with you! While this has went on a looooong time I am only in the pain I am feeling right this moment. If you don't find something you can do your brain starts telling you that pain is adding up and it gets worse because you are mentally adding it all up. Working out what you want to make and how you are going to do it keeps you busy so you don't add it up. When I have my camera out and I find something anything to shot I honestly don't feel it! I am alway trying out new crafts or combining crafts in new ways and I have always felt like she did that too!

Gorgeous

The square and triangular traditional Oaxacan bodice shapes also drew the viewer's eyes upward and "framed" her face

ah the height of the heels are different

She lost her leg later in life. The shoes above are from when she still had two feet.

So is the placement of the lace. Equal heuggt, different part of the design.

Before she had a leg amputated she had to wear a lift in one shoe.

I know that Lycra didn't exist until 1959, but I would think swimming in cotton knit swimwear would be rather uncomfortable.

but its so pretty.

She had a very hard life but instead of being a victim she made her misfortune into art.

I can totally relate...it's not easy, but you do what you have to do when you don't have a choice.

I always thought it was a tram accident

Beautiful

Poor woman

the corsets are so pretty

To this day Revlon makes some of the most unique and vibrant nail polish colors. I can see why she wore this brand. The polish left in the red bottle is still bright and beautiful.
