MBFW - EGO Space

After this summer break, it is time to get back into the routine!

My first idea was to come back with a little report of MBFW, but I have changed my mind after noticing the little support EGO designers receive. As I explained before, EGO is the committee for young talents in fashion, as well as a great space for the promotion of Spanish fashion. This edition, they haven't been really supported by the sponsors, nor by the consolidated designers.

From this humble blog, I want to encourage those promising and talented young designers to go on.

These were my favourite proposals from the September edition.

My total crush: SENYOR PABLO. In the showroom, he presented his f/w 2012/13 collection called 'Fade'. I'm in love with almost every woollen! 

Do you remember SHOOP? There they were again with a fantastic collection with old map patterns.

One more time, JARABOWTIE presented great proposals. There are no pictures yet of the s/s 2013 collection in their web, but keep track! 

Neither miss this www.anatichy.com/

nor this diekosmonautinlaika.blogspot.com.es/ (too cool to pick just a few proposals).

MBFWM - Day 5

Last day in Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Madrid. As there were less people than the other days, it was very nice to pace up and down the showground.

We spend the afternoon having a look at the EGO space stalls and enjoying the runaways.

I specially liked the costume jewellery stands, but it was a bit embarrasing to take photos in the sellers' faces... My favourite ones: http://www.apresskishop.com, http://www.leonlagata.es/ and http://www.saltodepulga.com/.

MBFWM - Day 3

Yesterday, I dropped into Cibeles Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in IFEMA, Madrid.

I would have liked entering Davidelfín or Hannibal Laguna runaways, but I arrived a bit late. Anyway, we had a fantastic time there, wandering around the stands and drinking cava (thanks to two wonderful friends who got us in the Mercedes-Benz VIP space).

Ana Locking opens the Time Capsule in her new collection and gets present and future mixed up, with mininal and geometric forms, together with silhouttes inspired by the 20's. In the evening dresses block, she proposes the classy combination that never lets down: black and white. A really elegant collection.

Aristocrazy brought the jewellery into the catwalk. The staging was fantastic, with all the models dressed in black leotards wearing the amazing jewels. I specially liked the golden ones, but all of them were exceptional.

If you have the chance to visit Cibelespacio, do not miss the EGO space to check the young talents and new designers proposals. There are many interesting offers that you can even buy at quite affordable prices.

As I forgot to take the camera, I have no photos for the time being, but I will go back tomorrow and bring you more about MBFWM.
