1920’s
Chihuahua, Mexico.
This picture is from my mother’s paternal side.
The girl in the white dress and big bow in her hair, is my grandfather’s mother when she was a child.
My great-grandmother’s parents where both German and had come to Mexico to work, where from there on, made a life and had children.
I chose this picture because, I’ve always been told in my family that I look like my great-grandmother, and because I don’t know so much of that side of the family, so I thought it would be interesting to research more about my heritage.
I think this tie up to my personal aesthetic, because my great-grandmother was known for always having a distinct style, using accentuated accessories that caught your attention.
Emilio Pucci Uniforms for the Braniff International Airline, 1965-73
I’ve always loved the silhouettes of the 60’s and the color coordination in the outfits, for me Emilio Pucci bloomed in the 60’s, and his patterns inspired many for the following years.
I found this image of Pucci’s collaboration with the airlines and thought that it was a fun concept, so I decided to look more into it, and found this cool image.
