Frida Kahlo's wardrobe go on exhibit
A corset that belonged to iconic Mexican painter Frida Kahlo is seen during a media preview of the exhibition "Smoke and Mirrors: Frida Kahlo's dresses" in Mexico City November 21, 2012. After 50 years under lock and key, hundreds of dresses and accessories worn by Kahlo are displayed by the Frida Kahlo museum formerly known as"Blue House", where she lived with her husband Mexican muralist Diego Rivera. Museum officials discovered the items - which include corsets, orthopaedic appliances, jewelry, colorful dresses, shawls, shoes and photographs - in 2004 when they entered previously sealed rooms of the "Blue House". The exhibit explores Kahlo's unique wardrobe inspired by Mexico's indigenous women with richly embroidered frocks, flowery headpieces and ornate silver jewellery, turning her into a fashion muse and earning her a spot in Vogue magazine in 1937.
