This dress is THE style of the season. It's a Mexican peasant style originally popularized by artist Frida Kahlo, who celebrated everything 'Mexican,' and brought traditional Mexican costume to New York, looking so fabulous that the style became popular. See her and her costumes in the movie, "Frida." This Mexican peasant dress fits itself to your figure as opposed to you fitting (or forcing) yourself to it. And it does it in a very flattering way. Designed with a smocked waist that fits to you with yet more options for fit with a drawstring tie, a full bodice with an elasticized and ruffled neckline that you can wear on your shoulders or be a tad daring and wear it off-shoulder, a long, full, tiered skirt, and long elasticized sleeves. The bodice has a drawstring tie so that you can adjust the fit and degree of openness. The fabric used for these is a crinkle rayon that's cool for summer, feels great against the skin, drapes and flows beautifully, and accepts dyes well for rich, saturated coloring. Try wearing this with one of our silk pashmina shawls draped around your shoulders; you're going to be nothing short of gorgeous in this. Read more...

BrianneLee: Mexican Dresses

My mom found these brand new Mexican wedding dresses at a local thrift store. They are gorgeous, but I have no idea what I would do with it if I purchased one. I was thinking that maybe they could be dyed and shortened, but they were $100 each, and I just didn't feel like I could spend that on a dress I didn't need. Still so pretty, though!
