Label Text:Ricardo Seco’s Yo Soy México project promoted emerging Mexican fashion designers who want to expand their work internationally. Dream collection was inspired by the indigenous Mexican Huichol tribe. He combined local craftsmanship with urban sportswear, as can be seen in the embroidery on this dress and the beading on the sneakers.
