Overview

- Her gown comes from Máximo’s ‘Morelia’ collection, a tribute inspired by his schnauzer and framed as a work drawn from memory and loyalty.
- Máximo assigned meanings to the palette he used, including yellow for life, gold for loyalty, fuchsia for bold character, red for love, green for growth, black for remembrance, orange for transformation, and white for purity.
- Coverage highlighted Mexican motifs incorporated in the piece, citing elements such as the Aztec calendar, an axolotl, hummingbirds with flowers, a cactus, an iguana, and the moon.
- The NYFW appearance advances Álvarez’s shift from a local debut at 15 in Jalisco to a global stage, with reports noting she also visited Ground Zero, the Statue of Liberty, and The Vessel during her trip.
