French singer Yelle is well known for her sweet catchy and danceable electro-pop, but also for wearing creations by designers as appropriate to her musical mood as Jean Charles de Castelbajac or Jeremy Scott.

In her collection for this winter Anna October keeps working on her always amazing and varied study of textures, mixing different tricot techniques in one garment. Also by adding kind of unexpected colour combinations where tradition -in camel, black or burgundy- meets the freshness of electric blue, lemon yellow or bright turquoise giving, Anna...

Friday evening was quite hectic in Berlin, to be sincere; after Stroke art fair and my brief visit to Voo to see the installation by Primitive London on its last day, the following not-to-miss appointment was in EastBerlin Store where designer Patrick Mohr -whose work I discovered last year during Berlin Fashion Week- presented...

Faithful to his austere palette, Nicolas Andreas Taralis presented last week in Paris his collection for next summer in black and white.

Migratory movements inspire the first collection Toni Francesc showed yesterday in 080 Barcelona Fashion, although Francesc is not exactly what we would call a newcomer since he has previously taken his creations to catwalks in Mexico, New York or even Russia.
Tan and earthy shades mostly, with flashes of vivid red and deep blue,...

How was that romantic and tormented dark thing we were talking about the other day? Ok, so I couldn’t help loving the latest collection by Peachoo+Krejberg, either. Starting, once again, with a sober colour palette including all chromatic shades going from off-white to deep black, the Indo-Dane duo consisting of Peachoo Datwani and Roy...

I think the multiple references to...

Rag & Bone
Interesting collection of the British duo, though not easy to digest at a first glance, mainly if you compared it to their trajectory till today and therefore, with what you expected to see. The mix of influences and referents, from the 90’s sportwear and the high-tech bondage with nylon ribbons to the...

Cuando aún estudiaba, fui de Erasmus a Inglaterra y en la escuela donde estaba nos plantearon un proyecto muy interesante. Había que elegir un diseñador, analizar su trayectoria, su estilo y crear una propuesta de colección totalmente coherente con lo que él había hecho hasta la fecha. Yo elegí Ungaro.
Ya ha sido criticado todo...
