Dressing for a Day of Mole Tasting in Mexico City
Choosing an overcoat for a food festival is a different task from choosing one for the office. Mexico City sits at around 2,240 metres above sea level, so even on sunny days the air can turn cool quickly once the sun drops, and mornings in the drier months often start chilly before warming up by midday. A good festival coat is one you can wear comfortably at nine in the morning, carry easily at two in the afternoon, and pull back on when the evening breeze arrives.
What to look for in a festival overcoat
- Lightweight layers: A mid-weight wool blend or a lined cotton trench is usually more practical than a heavy winter coat. It keeps you warm without becoming a burden as the day heats up.
- Darker or patterned fabrics: Mole is rich, oily and deeply coloured. A splash of mole negro or a drip of mole rojo shows far less on charcoal, navy, olive or a subtle check than on cream or pale camel.
- Useful pockets: Deep, secure pockets free your hands for tasting plates, tortillas and drinks, and keep a phone and some cash close while you move between stalls.
- Water resistance: During the rainy season, roughly from late spring through early autumn, afternoon showers are common in the capital. A coat with a water-repellent finish or a packable hood is worth having.
- Easy fit over layers: A relaxed cut lets you add a sweater underneath on cooler mornings without feeling restricted.
Caring for your coat after the festival
If sauce does land on your sleeve, blot rather than rub, and treat the stain as soon as you can. Mole contains chillies, chocolate, nuts, seeds and fat, so it behaves like a mix of oil and pigment stains. Check the care label before using any cleaning product, and for wool or delicate fabrics a professional dry cleaner is the safest choice.
Planning your outfit around the day itself helps too. Look at the schedule to see when you will be outdoors the longest, and use the tasting map to work out how much walking is involved, so your coat, shoes and layers suit the route you have in mind.
