I’m so excited about my upcoming visit to the Frida Kahlo exhibit at the Philadelphia Museum of Art (it’s there until May 18th, and it’s the exhibit’s only stop in the northeast!) that I’m devoting a few blog entries to Frida Kahlo fashion, merchandise, & general Frida-love. I have mixed feelings about a plague of merchandise created in honor of someone as cool as Frida. (Would Frida, communist at heart, would’ve even liked such a thing?) But, on the other hand, as far as branding goes, I would rather have FRIDA written on my shirt than ABERCROMBIE.
- Frida Kahlo “Reflections” Sticky Notes (Unemployed Philosophers Guild, $6)
- Frida Kahlo on Baby One Piece (babywit.com, $20)
- Frida’s Garden Fabric (fridafashions.com, $12/yd)
- Frida Stamps (2001 issue stamps, but can be purchased here)
- Frida Kahlo converse (one of three styles, only available at Converse Mexico)
- Frida Tequila (THIS might be an example of shameless branding of Frida’s image for the creation of unneeded material goods, but I’m not sure where to draw the line? Is Frida Kahlo converse any better? Is it better because the shoes are really cute whereas the Tequila, being unwearable, is a regular item re-packacaged and then branded with her image? Discuss.)
- Frida Kahlo Finger Puppet & Magnet (Unemployed Philosphers Guild, $6)
