Frida Kahlo may be most revered for her iconic paintings but her daring personal style and use of fashion as artistic expression is just as influential and far-reaching. Written by former director of Elle Spain, Susana Martínez Vidal, Assouline's 'Frida Kahlo: Fashion As The Art Of Being' hardcover book carefully examines her clothing - depicted in self-portraits and archival images - and its enduring impact on magazines, photographers and contemporary designers such as Jean Paul Gaultier, Alberta Ferretti and Kenzo. The 184-page tome is filled with anecdotes, quotes and 150 illustrations that will inspire and delight.
