Among the most meaningful choices made by Silvia Pinal's daughters, Sylvia Pasquel and Alejandra Guzmán, was the outfit selected for the actress's farewell. "We dressed her in a beautiful white gown. She always lit up the room she entered wearing white, yet her red lips spoke a different story," her children commented.
The attire, carefully selected and provided by Efigenia Ramos, serves as a heartfelt and respectful homage to a woman who profoundly influenced the realms of cinema and television in Mexico.
We chose her white clothing because that was her children's wish.
