About the designer:Josefa made her own clothes and jewelry, melding traditional Mexican colors and elements to make her own unique designs. Never mass-produced and made by local women. After seeing her dresses in Puerto Vallarta while filming, Elizabeth Taylor purchased many items from her. She formed a business partnership with Ana (ne Konstandin) and Edmondo Villa. This dress was made for them as an example to cement their business partnership. Sales at The Barefoot Eagle, her shop, soared. Josefa has had her designs and textiles shown in many exhibitions. There is really too much to say about this piece here, but this piece is important for collectors of Mexican high-end fashion. She was the first Mexican designer to have her work featured on the cover of Vogue Paris.
