Madrid, 18 feb. The Spanish designer Custo Dalmau, creative director of the firm Custo Barcelona, presented this Saturday at Madrid fashion week a collection with which he has made an ode to disco dresses, on a day in which party proposals take center stage and encourage a market that is beginning to wake up after the pandemic.
Just arrived from New York, Custo Dalmau assures that there is nothing like Madrid and its environment to show off the clothes he proposes for the coming autumn-winter, including dresses designed in technological fabrics with glitter and sequins that invite you to party.
“Fashion is picking up, people are buying again”, fashion is socializing, says the creator, who describes Madrid as “Disneyland. There is more movement here than in New York, where Madrid is spoken of as a world city It’s a reality,” he warns.
The collection is marked by the functionality of the clothing, “but looking for an emotional language with which we want to go further,” the designer told EFE, moments before his show on the Madrid catwalk.
Pieces with which he intends to seduce women who want to “transmit their individuality and security” with their wardrobe, says the designer, who will present a capsule collection for the first time at Paris fashion week next week.
The aluminum laminated dresses, the animal print top and pants with an iridescent effect and the holographic palette dresses that create geometries are striking; as well as the technological down jackets with three-dimensional embroidery and the more classic overcoats, which coexist with others made of synthetic fur.
Later, in the Lola Casademunt by Mait show, there was no shortage of animal prints, the brand’s hallmark, which on this occasion are manifested in different shapes and textures, on the third day of the Madrid catwalk.
The most saturated and vital reds, toasts, fuchsias, purples and blues give free rein to the creativity of Maite, the Casademunt premium line, which brought oversized coats, dresses with asymmetrical shapes and unequal lengths, knitted sets to the catwalk or jumpsuits that exude a non-conformist and party spirit.
Under a cloud of flashes, Joana Sanz from the Canary Islands walked the runway for the firm Lola Casademunt by Maite, the first job with which she returns to her profession after her still husband, the footballer Dani Alves, was remanded in preventive detention for allegedly raping a young man in a nightclub in Barcelona.
“Joana has paraded with the house’s garments since 2017, there have been many occasions in which she has worn our creations,” according to Maite Casademunt, the firm’s creative director, who acknowledges that the model is in this parade for “her professionalism “.
CLARO COUTURE COMMITS TO PENCIL SILHOUETTES
With almost 40 years of history, the Sevillian firm Claro Couture brought a collection to Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Madrid that was seen from the front row by the granddaughter of King Emeritus Juan Carlos I, the media “influencer” Victoria Federica de Marichalar y Borbón.
The firm is committed to mixing haute couture pieces with other more simple ones, because “after all, this is what life is about, about balance,” Beatriz Claro, creative director of the house together with her father, Fernando, told before the show.
On the catwalk there were pencil silhouette dresses, miniskirts and “oversized” coats, which were dressed with velvet maxi hats, brass jewelry, shoes with ankle bracelets and metallic boots and gloves.
The day concluded with the delivery of the L’Oréal París awards for the Best Designer Collection, which went to the firm Isabel Sanchis, while the Best Model award went to Lorena Guitán.
