The dialogue will be followed by a fashion show by the Argentine designer Pablo Ram\u00edrez, who will present a series of dresses inspired by Eva Per\u00f3n.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Eva Per\u00f3n, first lady of Argentina during the presidency of Juan Domingo Per\u00f3n and president of the Peronist Women’s Party, is not only one of the most fascinating personalities in the history of Argentina, but also a fashion icon. Eva’s style was unmistakable and developed at every stage of her short but intense artistic and political life. To explore the link between Eva and fashion is to understand a fundamental part of the construction of her myth.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The book looks at the 1947 tour of Europe and the collection of Spanish costumes she was given on that occasion. After the Second World War, Eva Per\u00f3n witnessed the expansion of haute couture and was a client of designers such as Christian Dior, Jacques Fath and Salvatore Ferragamo. The work shows the complexity of the relationship between Peronist discourse and the construction of Eva’s public image.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This meeting is held with the support of the Argentine Foreign Ministry<\/strong> and has also been included as part of the programme of the Festival E\u00f1e.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Casa Am\u00e9rica presents the book Evita frente al espejo: Ensayos sobre moda, estilo y pol\u00edtica en Eva Per\u00f3n next Monday at 9 am.v<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":52955,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":[],"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_social_meta":[],"jnews_override_counter":[],"jnews_post_split":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[195,176],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-81301","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-books","category-leisure"],"yoast_head":"\n
