The dress from the New York label is simply a "tribute" to Mexico's artisans, said Carolina Herrera's creative director Wes Gordon. Her poor, rural municipality of Tenango de Doria is the namesake for the intricate and painstaking Tenango embroidery technique, one of several native traditions Gordon used in his collection.
Glossy fashion magazines have praised Gordon's new collection as a savvy blend of Latin American influences – a nod to Herrera's roots – with the design house's classic chic.Mexican artisan Glafira Candelaria Jose, of the Otomi ethnic group, embroiders one of her designs at her workshop in San Nicolas village, in Tenango de Doria, Hidalgo state, Mexico, on June 18, 2019.
In addition to the Tenango design, she accused the label of "appropriating" embroidery from the isthmus of Tehuantepec, in southern Mexico, and the country's vibrant "Saltillo" ponchos.
