Don’t siesta on Spanish brands.
Spain has always had the fashion credentials, but its new guard is making things a lot more interesting. 1CONCEPT brings an art-school edge to tailoring, Celia B and Charo Ruiz Ibiza make the case for color, volume and dresses that practically make the plans for you, while Gimaguas and Laagam keep things younger and a little less polished with unexpected proportions and plenty of personality. Alohas has also carved out its own lane with directional shoes and accessories that make even a simple outfit feel more considered. On the quieter end, Hereu and Castañer prove traditional craft still has plenty of mileage, while HAND OVER, Enaguas, Carmen Says, Mais X Frida, Sita Nevado, Paola Sighinolfi and SA·LT Atelier bring everything from sculptural separates and tactile knits to beautifully considered everyday pieces. Bimba Y Lola may be the more commercial name in the mix, but its irreverent accessories and color still earn it a place here. The common thread is a willingness to have a point of view, whether that means going bold, keeping things artisanal or landing somewhere in between. Don’t siesta on Spanish brands.
