The inaugural Mayfair Times 'Mayfair & St James's Literary Festival' will take place this October across some of the area's most illustrious and historic venues. This is one of the events celebrating rich literary history happening in St James’s.

Frida Kahlo was not only an iconic artist, she was also a bold beauty and an avant-garde fashionista whose timeless sense of style continues to inspire and influence the worlds of fashion, media and art today. Kahlo inspired the first fashion editorial Vidal produced as director of ‘Elle Spain’, and since then, she has passionately followed Kahlo’s influence in fashion, music, and culture. After seeing the first-ever exhibition on Frida’s clothing, Vidal was inspired to write this, her first book.

The event will be held at Maison Assouline on the 17th of October, between 4pm and 5.30pm.
It is a free-ticketed event. There will be tea, coffee and macarons.
