From Shop Windows To Fame<\/strong>
Her passion for fashion and her interest in peculiar articles, not only carried Mar\u00eda Felix to amass enviable collections of jewels, lace, porcelain, furniture, and shawls among others; but were also the reasons why she was discovered. It is said that while looking at shop windows in Mexico City, director Fernando Palacios prompted the lady to audition for a film; she did not take him seriously, until sometime later when she decided to accept the challenge to become a legend.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Felix Style<\/strong>
At the start of the 1940s, Mar\u00eda Felix was already a star in the world of cinema and fashion. Famed for her highlighted curves and tiny waist, the trends of the time favored her even more and, although she adopted emblematic designs from the late 40s and early 50s girded at the waist and with extra-wide skirts, La Do\u00f1a was able to impose her own style thanks to her adored colossal pieces of jewelry and wide-brimmed hats.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Coveted Model<\/strong>
Known for her wardrobe demands, Mar\u00eda Felix established accounts with her clothes designers; she tried creations as many times as necessary so a fabulous garment could be produced. Her stunning beauty and demeanor captured the attention of the most prestigious fashion houses from Christian Dior -for whom she modeled collections- to Valentino, Chanel, Givenchy, Yves Saint Laurent and Balenciaga, who sought to dress her, and of course Hermes and Cartier, her favorite accessories firms.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Cartier Muse<\/strong>
The prestigious French jewelry brand found in Mar\u00eda Felix something more than an excellent client. Designs requested by La Do\u00f1a added to the fame of the firm, which years later would launch a collection inspired by one of its muses. In addition, some of the most emblematic pieces belonging to Maria featuring her beloved crocodiles and snakes are now part of the Cartier collection of art, which has been shown in many museums around the world.<\/p>

Maria Felix sold most of her jewelry back to Cartier. She left a 1957 Rolls Royce back in Paris.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
