1937 Alma Julia Viderique Coya




1937 Alma Julia Viderique Coya

In 1937 Alma Viderique was featured in the annual Mexico City Country Club yearbook representing "Sociedad de Baja California." Alma was a very high profile member of society who helped to organize many high society Black and White Balls throughout the 1930s and 1940s. She was married to Juan Legido, a very famous Spanish singer who popularized traditional Spanish songs. Her sister, Aida, was the wife of Mexico's President Abelardo L. Rodriguez. It's a shame we can't see Alma's beautiful huge brooch more clearly. Was it a multilayered filigree metal concoction in the style of Joseff of Hollywood, or was it a densely beaded Miriam Haskell? We'll never know, but it certainly did make a dramatic statement, as did her regal pose in profile.
