THE FUTURE OF FERNANDO CLARO’S BRAND
Green Light is the name of the new fashion proposal of the family fashion brand, led by Fernando Claro and his daughter Beatriz. This is one of the most special collections that they have created so far. The pandemic and the profound changes that the sector is experiencing have prompted them to open new horizons beyond the classic vision of tailor-made couture.
The fashion brand from Seville is prepared for the changes that the future brings. A commitment that is reflected through the use of technical and insulating fabrics in multifunctional garments with elastic pieces and polypropylene threads that adapt to the female body. Futuristic designs and sporty details are the protagonists of their proposals for the next spring / summer 2021 season in which freedom and courage are raised as their motto.
Fernando Claro gains strength and accelerates at full speed towards a new direction presenting his collection in a new format. The brand presents on the Mercedes- Benz Fashion Week Madrid runway its first fashion film starring actress Ana Rujas, influencer Lady Addict and model Esther Rodríguez, a commitment to the digital revolution that has arrived to stay in this veteran Sevillian couture house.

Juana Martín takes the beauty of Medina Azahara to Paris
Fashion designer Juana Martín presented “La Ville Lumineuse” at the Dosne-Thiers Foundation in Paris, a collection that combines the exuberance of Cordova, and the cultural richness of its streets with the light that Paris emanates.
With her new spring-summer 2020 proposal, Juana Martín pays tribute to the Medina Azahara and the splendour of Al Ándalus, just in time to celebrate a year after the declaration of this spectacular space as a World Heritage Site. The beautiful and tragic stories kept among the walls of the great work built by order of Abderramán III, inspire the creations of the designer from Cordova. Being a symbol of power and superiority towards its enemies, the marvellous walls of "the bright city" covered in marble, gold and precious stones are reflected in each piece of the collection, providing delicate artisan wealth. Fluid fabrics and tulles full of rhinestones reflect perfectly the beauty of the Medina.
Once again, Juana Martín takes the charms and treasures of Cordova to the global fashion capital. As in each of her collections, the designer searches again within herself, her origins, her beliefs and the devotion she feels for her homeland. This has been the designer from Cordova’s fourth fashion show held within the structure of Paris Fashion Week, a presentation for which she has once again enjoyed the collaboration of Tolentino Haute Hats. The Sevillian high-end milliner firm has joined this spectacular tribute by creating exclusive, impressive headdresses that have taken the mystery and beauty of the Medina Azahara to the Parisian runway.

Custo begins a new phase in New York
Custo Barcelona presents a new collection titled Wet Paint at NYFW. As if it were a new house, the Catalan fashion brand is renewed and paints a new future with this fashion show, with which it begins a new phase after joining Italian group Velmar.
Custo Barcelona's proposal is highly emotional and honours female strength through experimental lines and volumes. The woman's body can be seen through cuts and windows, created with subtly placed strips, as well as short and long sets that fill the collection for spring-summer 2020 with contrasts.
Modernity is the thread of next season's fabrics. The most technical materials are mixed with others of ethnic inspiration, such as thick threaded jacquards in very bright colours, made by hand with old looms. White neoprene is a must, unifying the fashion proposals when combined with different elements, among which there is also colourful organza creating very original textures in the looks.
While the woman is the absolute protagonist of Wet Paint, and after several seasons without presenting a fashion proposal for men, Custo has showcased in this fashion show a part of the capsule collection for men. Colour is the main protagonist of the garments, among which highlighted are animal print sweatshirts and a selection of bathroom pieces made with technical fabrics.

Marcos Luengo extols the beauty of nature
MARCOS LUENGO takes as a starting point the work of painter and architect Charles Villeneuve to create his spring-summer 2020 collection. The designer reflects on the incidence of light in nature and its colours. Thus, the artist's watercolours not only serve as inspiration for the designer from Asturias, but also stamp his garments in a very special way.
His fashion proposal’s silhouettes are full of movement. Light fabrics such as silk gauze, satin and gazar become protagonists of patterns with sinuous lines.
Green stands as the predominant colour in a collection that is complemented by the jewel sculptures of Marga García Pinto. Natural leaves bathed in silver decorate MARCOS LUENGO’s style proposals in which fashion and art go hand in hand with the sole purpose of extolling the beauty of nature.

Duarte bets on the more minimal style
The DUARTE fashion brand uploads their creations on the runway reaffirming their commitment to minimal aesthetics, a concept that has become a hallmark of the menswear brand founded by Carlos Duarte, and Kiko Font from Malaga in charge of the creative direction.
Tailoring garments with very structured silhouettes coexist with light and fluid garments in a collection that seeks balance. Thus, rigid fabrics such as twills and denim are fused with lighter fabrics such as linen or silk. The colour palette goes from natural into stronger shades such as Bordeaux, lime, orange or blue. In this proposal, DUARTE also makes room for prints, which are inspired by Haida art.
Accessories take special prominence, with very versatile leather bags and pieces of jewellery that recall the work of John Chamberlain with worn veneer, designed exclusively for the fashion brand by David Locco, a pioneer in the use of ecological diamonds.

The vitality of Ulises Mérida’s collection
ULISES MÉRIDA presents “Vita” on the runway, his spring-summer 2020 collection. As the name suggests, the fashion proposal from the designer from La Mancha exudes abundant vitality through a palette of vibrant colours.
Elegant and very urban, the Merida woman dresses in ample and fluid garments. The designer bets on this occasion for a notably more casual collection, with linen and cotton as protagonists of very studied looks suitable for any time of the day. The emblematic Bettina, the white shirt that has become the hallmark of the creator, returns to be presented on this occasion in a more ample version.
ULISES MÉRIDA flees from traditional evening dress and includes in his designs a series of garments made in guipure that fill with sophistication a fashion proposal full of movement. White and beige are the main theme of this collection, full of surprising combinations of colour and touches of fluor that endow the collection with great personality.

Miguel Marinero’s coral reef
MIGUEL MARINERO submerges us in an underwater journey with his new fashion proposal for the spring-summer 2020 season. “Arrecife” is a cool collection, bright and full of aquatic colours such as blue, green seaweed and white foam from the waves.
The collection’s prints recreate the seabed. Free and light, the fashion proposal is full of tulles that flow with movement, mesh and lurex that takes us into the marine world. Thus the silhouettes adapt to the woman's body in a comfortable and natural way.
The rebel edge is set by black napa in garments and complements that are shown in contrast with powder rose. In the fashion proposal of this brand, a master in the use of the leather, there is no lack of fur, with spectacular garments made with remnants of Marinero’s atelier, which are mixed like a patchwork to simulate the patterns of their textile garments.

María Escoté’s most responsible collection
MARÍA ESCOTÉ teamed up with Wallapop, the well-known sales platform, to upload the first MBFWM second-hand fashion show to the runway in an awareness exercise regarding responsible consumption.
The designer reuses pieces acquired in this sales fashion platform giving them a new life. A magical touch that turns any old garment into a totally new one. As if she were a fairy godmother, María Escoté’s creativity is embodied in outfits in which she has deconstructed biker jackets, smocking children's dresses, leather garments and even sportswear.
The reuse of fashion is the protagonist of the fashion show, in which we see very different and fun creations that invite us to reflect on ecology and our coherence when it comes to acquiring fashion.[:]

Roberto Verino and his tribute to Carolyn Bessette
ROBERTO VERINO presents his fall-winter collection 2019/2020 in a fashion show at the Puerta del Sol's Royal Post Office. The veteran designer is backing the see-now-buy-now formula, and uploads a menswear and women’s wear collection to the runway in which he pays his particular tribute to the ill-fated marriage made up by Carolyn Bessette and John Kennedy Jr.
The couple becomes a source of inspiration for the designer from Galicia, which reflects the minimalist essence of the 90s and the sport spirit of the 70s presenting a proposal of refined lines and master cuts.
Thus, the diplomatic line, napa and quilts become the thread of a proposal in which he combines with great wisdom the sobriety of a decade with the romanticism of the other. All this with a special staging that featured the participation of prominent figures from the world of fashion and culture from Madrid who showcased his new creations along the runway.

Pedro del Hierro takes us to Africa
Fashion brand PEDRO DEL HIERRO presents “Superbloom”, the spring-summer 2020 collection in a fashion show held at the Puerta del Sol Royal Post Office. The floral essence of spring inspires Nacho Aguayo and Alex Miralles to create a fashion proposal in which the Savannah is transformed into an explosion of colour.
The African continent is the starting point for PEDRO DEL HIERRO, taking us to unique scenarios through earth tones that flow with floral prints and vivid colours. With this collection, the historic firm belonging to the Tendam Group showcases its expertise in pattern design and the use of fabrics.

Devota & Lomba presents Oasis
DEVOTA & LOMBA returns to the MBFWM runway with Oasis, his fashion proposal for next spring-summer season 2020, after the strategic break that the signature label headed by Modesto Lomba made in fashion week’s previous edition.
The historic fashion brand returns with more strength than ever and shows a collection of rich materials and exquisite patterns, which will later have its commercial translation, with the new DEVOTA & LOMBA’s ready-to-wear line.
His premium proposal, designed for tailor-made couture, is made with heavyweight linens, delicious printed silks and double cottons. Delicate floral prints dot this oasis, a collection in which the signature label is surprisingly baroque with garments topped with large bows and ruffles, and in which their well-known architectural silhouettes soften to show themselves more innocent and feminine.

Oliva and his commitment to sustainability
JUANJO OLIVA presents a collection in which the limits of temporality do not exist. Warm clothes and light summer dresses coexist in the same proposal, in which the designer from Madrid once again demonstrates his commitment to sustainability.
PET fabrics, made from recycled plastic, have the same prominence as natural fibres such as linens and cotton, since the real commitment that OLIVA uploads on the runway is one with responsible consumption. Thus, the designer even shows twice the same garment on the runway in a metaphor that reflects how good design lasts over time.
His looks are complemented with the sunglasses collection he has created for Multiópticas, and with small handbags and accessories to store mobile phones, made in collaboration with Samsung.

Ana Locking’s five friends
ANA LOCKING uploads to the runway a collection that seeks to dismantle the labels and established stereotypes about women. “A short story on weird girls”, represents a conversation between five friends that translates into five aesthetic silhouettes.
The idealist woman is dressed in tailored suits, which are filled with floral prints. The feminine part is dyed in black and white, with textures such as technological pleats, jaqcquard, lace and hand-painted flowers. The most risky woman in Locking dresses in yellow, black and nude with experimental fabrics with silicone sequins and dresses in silver mesh and embroidered glass.
In the designer’s fashion proposal for spring-summer 2020 there is also room for lame with very peculiar metallic embroidery, for those most passionate. Large volumes, folds and flounces of taffeta in sensual mini dresses and bodies, represent the most attractive and voluptuous side of women.

Custo Barcelona, heading to Italy
Iconic fashion brand CUSTO BARCELONA says goodbye to Spain to head to Italy, where the production and headquarters will move to after the agreement reached with the Velmar Group, owner of fashion brands such as Alberta Ferretti and Moschino.
Thus, Custo's creations have been filled with motifs that made references to farewells. Phrases such as “goodbye” or “Je te quite se” presented themselves in different embroideries that ran through their garments. In this new stage, the Dalmau brothers will continue to be the creative managers of the fashion brand from Barcelona, but they will also have a new team of young designers who will provide a new approach to their brand.
Metallic glitter and their emblematic works of patchwork, in which different materials and textures are mixed in a very special way, have been the absolute protagonists of a sexy and daring proposal, in which the swimsuits and openwork mini dresses in seventies style rise as star proposals.

Overlays are the star of Torretta’s fashion proposals. The colour palette is very calm, in contrast to the luxurious materials used by the designer, in which he reveals again his know-how with leather.
Torretta takes us to the end of the 70s with very feminine and elegant silhouettes, which envelop women’s body. Actress Marisa Berensson for his most special evening designs, in which jewellery and moiré are the absolute protagonists, inspires the creator.

Nature is the guiding thread of the collection, which calls for caring for the environment. Sustainability becomes a complete philosophy, with slopes and headdresses that give a second life to plastics and glass.

The birth of a contemporary Venus by Juan Vidal
Beauty, the concept of platonic love and Renaissance art are part of the creative universe in which JUAN VIDAL was inspired to create his new spring-summer 2020 collection.
The birth of Venus de Botticelli is the starting point of the proposal by the designer from Alicante. In “Venus in Rome”, Vidal idealizes women, placing her in an almost divine plane, with urban garments and sacred silhouettes in which past and present merge. This contemporary goddess dresses up in fabrics such as linen, organza, tulle or cotton poplin, which is adorned with rich embroideries that recall the ornamentation of Roman vases, spikes and flowers made of sequins and rhinestones.
The colours of the Italian Renaissance, with bright white, blue reminiscent of Boticelli’s skies, prints taken from Raphael’s frescoes and clusters of grapes characteristic of the paintings by Michelangelo, decorate the garments. Gold and fish, used in ancient Rome for the entertainment and courtship of high society, are used as ornaments in the hair and in very special pieces of jewellery.

Nature arrives in the city with Ángel Schlesser
Daniel Rabaneda presents his third collection as creative director of ÁNGEL SCHLESSER. The designer adapts shapes from men's tailoring in his proposals for women for spring-summer 2020.
If in his previous collection the designer from Seville dived in Schlesser’s historical archive, this time his creations are completely renewed and more Rabaneda than ever, but always respecting simplicity, signature of the fashion house. Thus, the young creator reflects in this proposal one of his main hobbies, climbing. Mountain earth and brown tones coexist with colours that seem to have been worn by the sun.
ÁNGEL SCHLESSER’s woman appears urban and relaxed in a proposal that takes nature to the city through fabrics such as linen or cotton, which are mixed with other technical materials giving structure to looks featured by very light garments. The long evening dress, until now absent in the work of Daniel Rabaneda, makes an appearance in this new collection.

A trip under the sea together with Ailanto
AILANTO offers us an underwater trip in their spring-summer 2020 collection, entitled Still Life, with fabrics drawn with marine motifs. With the staging of this fashion show, the brand makes a call to raise awareness for the ocean’s conservation.
The Muñoz brothers reflect still life paintings from the eighteenth century and the essence of the work of painter Anne Velayer-Coster in each creation for next summer, in a desire to capture the infinite beauty of nature.
Shells, seaweed and sea horses fill their prints, which are presented in very light fabrics such as silk gauze or cotton. Serenity and harmony define an ultra feminine proposal in which dresses are presented with superimposed layers and scarves play to create new volumes. Corals and pearls are presented in delicate embroidery in a collection that is tinted in the seabed’s colours.

Moisés Nieto and the luxury of simplicity
White linen, a meal with friends gathered round a table .... For MOISÉS NIETO luxury lies in the simplicity and enjoyment of peacefulness. The creator seeks to get away from daily stress with a collection of Mediterranean airs in which white becomes the undisputed protagonist.
MOISÉS NIETO delves into the family trousseau to create his spring-summer 2020 proposal. Firmly committed to sustainability, the designer from Jaén bets again for up-cycling, giving new life to four linen tablecloths and 12 embroidered napkins. Family treasures that are transformed into delicate dresses, skirts and blouses.
The chromatic range of his collection is marked by softness and is only interrupted by washed green or pink roses that transport us to a coastal town with whitewashed walls and the smell of freshly hung clothes. Quite an oasis of calmness and purity that invites reflection on excessive consumption. Therefore, in his proposal there is also a gap for a claim, with T-shirts with a clear message: "I do want Madrid Central".

Modernity and tradition contrast in the Carlota Barrera show
Designer CARLOTA BARRERA presents her men's collection in the framework of the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Madrid, the first after wining Vogue Who's on Next and joining ACME. Her creations distil quality; richness in the fabrics and also in the finishes, a clear symptom of the great moment the designer from Asturias is going through.
This young creator based in London landed in MBFWM in July 2018 to revolutionize the concept of men's fashion. In this collection, Barrera reflects on the involution of liberties and the return of conservatism. Thus, the designer starts from the cultural and musical revolution lived in Europe at the beginning of the 70s to face it with Spain still closed up by the Franco regime.
Figures like Mick Jagger or David Bowie are the starting point of a collection full of contrasts between modernity and tradition. From the regime in Spain at the time she picks up crafts such as crochet or basketry, and is inspired by typical tablecloths and terrazzo floors to create prints. Carlota Barrera renews the most classic tailoring to make sobriety fun. The opaque fabrics of her suits, symbol of Spanish repression, contrast with proposals in very light silks and grids reminiscent of Europe in full effervescence.

French movies inspire Lexdeux
The film Mon Oncle by French filmmaker Jacques Tati inspires Juanma Capón to create the spring-summer 2020 collection by LEXDEUX. Matadero’s Central de Diseño de Madrid is the headquarters of the brand's fashion show, which once again presents its proposals within the MBFWM schedule.
The 50s silhouettes and the colour of Tati's films are perfectly reflected in the LEXDEUXcreations for next summer. The black and white binomial is the guiding thread of this collection, in which the designer makes a semantic use of colour. Vibrant red, pink and a sifted green eucalyptus make their way into a collection in which soft colours face more strident tones.
Soft and light fabrics contrast with grids and embroidered applications in an elegant proposal, with simple and refined lines, but full of details.

Pilar Dalbat opens the 70th edition of MBFWM
Designer PILAR DALBAT opens the schedule of the 70th edition of MBFWM with the presentation of her collection “Fieras” in the Pavilion of Cecilio Rodríguez, located in the Parque del Retiro.
The peacocks that live in these emblematic gardens are the source of inspiration for the creator, born and raised in Granada who, faithful to her premise of uniting fashion and cultural heritage in her fashion shows, merges on this occasion landscaping with her creations for next spring / summer season 2020. Thus, the wide range of colours of “Fieras” corresponds to those of the Cecilio Rodríguez's Pavilion itself, an 18th century architectural space that formed part of what was at the time the second zoo in Europe.
Metallic fabrics, fringes, mesh, organza, linen and taffeta are the stars of 36 looks that are dyed in leaf green, silver and turkey blue. Dalbat’s silhouettes float around the body, but in her fashion proposals there is also room for dresses and skirts that are tightened at the waist. Tricolour sequins and delicate hand embroidery adorn her garments, which could be acquired right after the fashion show, thus creating the concept see-now-order now.

Maya Hansen presents Arty Globetrotter
Maya Hansen recollects materials and techniques from other cultures for her spring / summer 2020 fashion proposal. “Arty Globetrotter” immerses us in a creative universe in which the designer is presented as a globetrotter exploring destinations such as Mexico, United States, Denmark, Spain or China to be inspired.
Different artistic and cultural references come together in a collection that experiments with fabrics, laser cuts and different techniques such as sculpture, basketry, ceramics and 3D printing. “Arty Globetrotter” includes art, with references to neo-impressionist painter Matt Sesow, as well as up cycling, providing new value to recycled materials with each garment.
Thus, in Maya Hansen's proposals we can see how children's puppets, fishing nets, recycled denim, pieces of sheets or felt and reused wools are integrated. The creator from Madrid reinvents in this way the architecture of the corset, the hallmark of her work, in an eclectic collection full of colour.
Her new proposals can be seen up close in the exhibition that the designer has installed in the space Xperience of B The Travel Brand on occasion of Madrid es Moda.
