"Around 1937, Tachi Castillo opened her eponymous store in Casa Borda [...] Her fashion designs caught the eye of a vacationing Hollywood actress Joan Fontaine, who brought many of Tachi’s dresses back with her to Hollywood. Soon thereafter, Tachi Castillo was dressing other Hollywood stars including Brigitte Bardot and Lana Turner. International celebrities could be seen in Castillo designs, too, such as Princess Anne and Frida Kahlo. Her feminine and romantic designs of cotton pintuck peasant blouses, and wide swirly skirts skillfully paired the wonderful designs of her native Mexico with modern, hand-painted, and hand-embroidered designs. She is credited with having created the popular “Mexican wedding dress”, and also specialized in colorful evening apparel."
