Section 03 — The Curated Lookbook
Dress Code
"Dress for cobblestone, not for photos."
— the only rule we won't bend
Not 'festive attire'. Not 'garden formal'. Here is exactly what we mean, photographed rather than described.
Footwear Warning — Friday
Block heels,
wedges or flats.
Mandatory.
The calenda moves through Oaxaca's cobblestone streets for close to two kilometres. A stiletto will be destroyed inside one block, and so will your ankle. This is the single rule we will not bend.
The brief
What To Wear
The Men
Suits, ties optional
Unstructured linen or lightweight wool in sand, bone, olive or Arabic blue. Collar open. Loafers or clean boots. Ties are allowed if you are really feeling it — no pressure, though.
The Women
Boho chic
Flowing linen, cotton, hand-embroidery, fringe and texture. Cowboy boots are highly encouraged — Saturday at the ranch is exactly the right place for them.
Texture & Palette
Campirano elevado
Think sand, clay, brass and mezcal-bottle green — set against the deep blues of a Oaxacan dusk. These shades are not exclusive; any color in the same warm, dusty, earthy world is welcome. Avoid stark white (that is taken) and avoid anything that resents dust.
- Arabic Blue
- Vintage Aqua
- Icarus

Friday · Calenda
Campirano Casual
You will be walking, dancing and sweating in the street. Breathable fabrics, layers for the 50°F drop, and shoes engineered for cobblestone.
Saturday · Rancho Cebú
Desert Formal
Full editorial. Long dresses, sharp suits, boots welcome. Bring a wrap or jacket — the ceremony is outdoors and the night gets cold fast.
