Mexi-Clothing – Mex Christmas Market
Meet Mexi-Clothing taking part at 2020’s Mexican Christmas Market.
In 2015, Fraser travelled from London to Mexico City for the first time to visit his girlfriend, Natalia. Impressed and passionate about the sheer diversity in the capital, he returned to London hoping to add a little bit of Mexican culture to his everyday life. The cuisine and music were already prevalent – but the fashion and style that struck him from young designers in Mexico City was nowhere to be found.
MEXI. Clothing was born out of love. Natalia and Fraser started working on the brand to bring together what they both held so dearly: their countries.
The colourful textiles of traditional Mexican fashion and the street style of historic London have never looked quite so good together. The brands we work with, the styles we curate, all come from a place of the tradition of Mexican design. Be it vibrant socks or a pocket tee sewed by an artist in Oaxaca, everything you find on MEXI. Clothing has been carefully curated for those seeking something unique.
MEXI. Clothing is tacos and pubs. It’s margaritas and gin and tonic. It’s street fashion and traditional textiles. It’s a brand for all world travellers, whether you’ve done it or you dream of doing it. For those craving to bring culture into their home and lifestyle.
This year, highlights have included taking part in online markets, working with two new brands from Mexico, listing our business in ethical directories (such as Ethical Revolution). We are very excited for next year – finally being able to travel to Mexico again and sourcing new brands for the site!
We’re based in Peckham and love exploring Mexican businesses in London, such as our favourite restaurants and shops. Natalia moved to London last year and has spent Christmas here for the past 5 years. Aside from the obvious love of piñatas, she’s always enjoyed making buñuelos for Fraser’s family, her favourite Christmas dessert – always having it with her grandmother’s syrup is the epitome of Christmas.
