Mexican government calls out fashion house Carolina Herrera for the 'cultural appropriation' of indigenous patterns and textiles from Mexico in its latest collection.
MEXICO CITY — The Mexican government has called out fashion house Carolina Herrera for the"cultural appropriation" of indigenous patterns and textiles from Mexico in its latest collection.
The ruling party, the leftist National Regeneration Movement, has been planning legislation to protect indigenous communities from plagiarism and having their work used by others without receiving fair compensation. In it, the ministry demanded that Herrera"publicly explain on what basis it decided to make use of these cultural elements, whose origins are documented, and how this benefits the communities."
"We feel obliged to draw attention to this and start a public conversation about an urgent matter that features on the United Nations 2030 agenda for sustainable development," the letter said.
