Frida Kahlo look-alikes attempt to break record

-

With unibrows and flowers in their hair, more than 1,000 people came to a Dallas museum dressed as Frida Kahlo as part of an attempt to set a record. The Dallas Museum of Art says more than 5,000 people attended the celebratio­n Thursday night marking the 110th birthday of the artist. The museum, which partnered with the Latino Center for Leadership Developmen­t for the attempt, said evidence will be submitted to Guinness World Records next week and the review process will take up to 12 weeks.

Participan­ts were asked to create a unibrow, put flowers in their hair, wear a red or pink shawl and a flower-printed dress. The museum is currently featuring an exhibition called "Mexico 1900-1950: Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo, Jose Clemente Orozco, and the Avant-Garde." — AP
