Museu Dica Frazão
It's a one-woman show at Museu Dica Frazão, where the museum's namesake, Dona Dica (pushing 100 years old!), has labored over her clothing creations in this home workshop for three-quarters of a century. Using natural fibers like tree bark, fibers extracted from grass, buriti straw, seeds, patchouli roots and other materials, she has fashioned dresses for Belgian queens and tablecloths for the pope, among others. You can see displays of her handiwork as well as purchase some of her remarkable artwork.
