WHAT WOULD FRIDA WEAR? A fun online paper doll experience.



Click on the title above to play with virtual Frida paperdolls! You can dress her in dozens of different huipiles, quechquemitl and other folkloric costumes.  This activity is part of the Arizona State Museum's website section on Mexican textiles in the Cordry Collection.  As you play with the clothing you can also link to great photos and information on the history, culture and process associated with each outfit.  There's also a good reading list a links to all sorts of great stuff. Check it out!
