RUIZGALAN

Architectual shapes, unexpected volumes, pleated fabrics, unstructured silhouettes… RUIZGALAN places himself in a group of designers that understand fashion as an experimental activity in a visual/sculptural sense. In this case, URBE takes its insoiration from the atmosphere of European capitals. Walking in Madrid, the designer sketched a collection divided in two different parts. The first part- grey pallete- was inspired by abstractions from several urban elements. In the second half, colour breaks in, with chromatic combinations born in the most unexpected places: building works, insulating foam, plaster, rubble, walls damaged by time and scaffoldings create amazing copper-coloured shades, naif turquoise blue nuances and bright oranges sparkles. After these fragments from the real world, URBE ends with a picture of positivity: a cocoon outfit that shows the light coming in through the gaps of half-closed blind.
