Alexandra’s 2025 F1 Mexican Grand Prix look was a creative reimagining of The Two Fridas by Frida Kahlo (1939).

This scene finds Alexandra seated in front of The Two Fridas in an animated gallery environment constructed in After Effects, surrounded by excerpts from Frida Kahlo’s personal journals. The placement provides a direct visual comparison between Alexandra and Frida for the viewer.

Same assets, two different presentations. The first shot is centered around an animated fashion sketch with designs created out of cherry blossoms. The floral theme continues into the second shot, but this time with a color shift into the 2026 Chinese Grand Prix look, where Alexandra debuted a custom blue Ferrari cheongsam by Hong Kong designer Cheryl Leung.
