Sky-blue, yellow and pink in pastel shades are mixed with prints of irregular stains. Mini dresses and super tight bodysuits draw the limits of feminin body in the latest collection by Mal-Aimée, presented in 080 Barcelona Fashion last week, while marked shoulder pads and fluid shapes, on the other hand, sculpt a new one:...

Omar Kashoura’s stylistic references are subtlely woven in the collection he recently presented in 080 Barcelona Fashion: messages in neon lights by Bruce Naumans, Woodstock festival, social union pursuing mutual support and the liberation movements that took place during the ’60s and ’70s inspire this relaxed proposal of soft shapes and a delicate retro...

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,...

It might have been the colour wave that has invaded us this season what has inspired the guys in Jan iú Més to venture into those chromatic fields not so explored by them in their previous collections. For next summer, Jan and Alfonso move away a little bit from that sober palette of them...

I still carry on my unsuccessful search of the perfect handbag and Loewe seems to carry on, too, on their attempt to make it easy for me. How thoughtful of them…

The basics of beach grunge, according to my conclusions after seeing the editorial Washed Up by Aitken Jolly with Hannah Nobel, Marique Schimmel and Harmony for B Magazine, are very simple: T-shirt or vest with irregular print (read, dip-dye, tie-dye or any other dye masterpiece that you can make on your own with some...

At a first glance, the work of the designer Alexis Reyna never goes unnoticed, among many other things, because that is not his intention either. Cheeky and rebel, his philosophy is shown in deconstructed garments and intricate multicolour prints. From Barcelona he tells us about his beginnings in fashion, his referents and Misses Cahun...

Ok. Now. I’ve seen it clear. It is the endless summer mood: mixing and matching while anything perfectly suits your brand new tan, eating candies in the sun, getting into the pool with an inflatable pretzel… C’mon, who has never dreamed of having a giant inflatable pretzel? Please!

Creative tandem Abbey Lee Kershaw / Hedi Slimane is, in my opinion, one of the most well-balanced of the moment. I love the radical but progessive makeover of the Aussie model from the very beginning and how, by defining her own identity, she has managed to disassociate herself from the rest. I love the...

However, the small village where my father was born, located in the outskirts of a city, full of little houses and with no more...
