[shi-gu]

March 21st is Donají's birthday!

Spring is here, and Codex Black is almost out! Decided to do a traditional watercolor for a change.

“Sailor Huipil” design is based on Mossa’s beautiful fan art, I've been itching to draw it ever since!

Mexican fashion - trends not to miss

Mexican fashion is distinguished by its vibrant patterns, dynamic prints, and textiles in striking colors. These elements are omnipresent in both traditional Mexican clothing and culture. In particular, Mexican women's fashion is rich in playful designs and bright colors, reflecting the essence of this culture. For years, traditional clothing styles worn by Mexican women have experienced a resurgence in popularity, influencing summer fashion trends annually. Off-the-shoulder tops and ruffled dresses inspired by Mexican fashion are no longer reserved for a simple Mexican fiesta. They have seamlessly integrated into our everyday wardrobe, offering original, inspired pieces. Moreover, many Mexican designers draw from their cultural heritage to create energetic and unique collections.

What are the different types of Mexican clothing?

Traditional Mexican clothing is a tribute to color, craftsmanship, and history. Numerous iconic Mexican outfits, with their variety of colors and patterns, make up what we know today as Mexican fashion.

The Tehuana Costume

The women of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec, in southern Mexico, are world-renowned for their colorful traditional costumes, made particularly popular by the iconic Frida Kahlo, who made these outfits her signature. These garments, with their floral patterns and bright colors, have often been featured in the media. The Tehuanas, who wear these costumes, remain proud of their cultural identity and fashion heritage.

The Rebozo

The rebozo is a multifunctional garment, often made of cotton, wool, or silk, primarily used to cover the head or body. This essential accessory in Mexican fashion serves both practical purposes and adds elegance to any outfit.

The Huipil

The huipil is a sleeveless tunic, highly popular in Mexico. This traditional garment helps identify the wearer’s geographical origins through specific patterns, a practice common in many cultures worldwide. The huipil is both a homage to craftsmanship and a symbol of cultural belonging.

Aztec Clothing

Traditional Aztec clothing was often loose and colorful, marked by a rich palette due to the vast trade network of the time. These garments continue to influence Mexican fashion today, especially through intricate designs and textiles that celebrate the heritage of pre-Columbian civilizations.

The Influence of Frida Kahlo

Frida Kahlo is undoubtedly one of the greatest ambassadors of Mexican fashion. Her unmistakable style, combining pearl-adorned earrings, elaborate necklaces, and floral headpieces, embodies the playful, maximalist spirit of Mexican fashion. Her influence extends far beyond Mexico's borders and has inspired many international designers.

Contemporary Mexican Designers

Mexican fashion isn't limited to its rich cultural heritage. It is also represented by a dynamic and flourishing contemporary scene, with designers who challenge norms and redefine the perception of Mexican fashion both locally and globally. Mexico City, in particular, has become a creative hub where tradition meets modernity. Kris Goyri Kris Goyri's style is characterized by bold silhouettes, vibrant colors, and clean lines, a perfect example of the balance between tradition and modernity in Mexican fashion.

writing this one-shot fic of mavuika and capitano is rlly grinding my gears bc ofc i'm researching a Lot about traditional "Natlan" attire, which means really diving deep into the cultures that Natlan was inspired by.

so what the fuck genshin. "Mavuika" is from Mahuika, the Maori god of fire, and then you adorn her with Aztec-themed clothes, and her home is inspired by the native American and Philippine pueblos. you really lumped all of our cultures together like it's one thing, and it would have been tolerable, but then you fucking make her as white as paper.

sigh.
