Tejana Threads-Evette Falcon

Evette Falcon presents her Mexican Maximalist collection. By combining ideas of rasquache, chicana fashion, and history with pleating techniques, layered beading, and hand made appliqués she builds a vibrant world of her cultural style. Her work is rooted in her ancestry and explores the survival of Mexican spirituality within Catholicism. Mexican traditions tiptoe between folklore and religion, the occult and the holy, and this collection dresses those who carry that balance dear to them.
