Loris Lora
Los Angeles-based Loris Lora cre-
ates beautiful painted scenes that
are reminiscent of the illustrations
in a story book. Her cover for this
season’s edition of SHOP Madrid
was inspired by the links between
fashion and art explored in the fea-
ture on page 38 – it shows a glam-
orous woman wearing a dress that
resembles a painter’s palette. Lo-
ra’s work has also appeared in the
Wall Street Journal, Boston Globe
and Los Angeles Times, among
other publications.

is a Spanish-based label, famed
for its colourful and quirky col-

in the accomplished irreverence
with which it executes its designs.
Take this pink swimsuit with car-

as Bimba y Lola could make this

Jason Wu’s second outing for
Boss is a confdent assertion of the
brand’s new direction. There is
something for every occasion in the
current womenswear collection.
Need a razor-sharp shirtdress for

nous lilac gown for a formal event?
Double check. Of course, no Boss
collection would be complete with-

does not disappoint with a fawless

SPLIT PERSONALITY
Escada’s spring/summer 2015
collection explores contrast. While
half of the pieces are inspired by all
things bright and bold, the other
ofers a softer, more feminine vi-
sion. Vibrant purples, oranges and
lime greens are combined with
delicate pastels, nudes and mono-
chromes. Accessories follow the
same pattern, and colour-pop san-
dals really stand out when paired
with a neutral handbag. rf

Since Hedi Slimane’s appoint-

Laurent in 2012, the label has be-

collection features the rock- and
retro-inspired menswear which is
becoming the brand’s signature.
At the label’s spring/summer 2015
show in Paris, delightfully dishev-
elled, long-haired models gave an

Silkana swimwear was founded
in Spain in 2009 when a group of
fashion designers created a col-

swimsuits inspired by their trav-
els in Spain, South America and
Indonesia. In order to live in
sunny conditions all year round,
the team moves around the globe,
collecting fabrics and collabo-

The colourful creations refect
the cultures and surroundings
discovered on these travels, and
pieces can be purchased as sepa-

create individual ensembles. Silk-

outstanding quality and timeless
appeal for swimwear that looks

example. This season, the design-er, who heads her own eponymous label, took inspiration from the Post-it note for her spring/summer 2015 collection. Ruiz de la Prada used fuorescent Post-its to inject a pop of luminous colour into the fashion landscape. A multitude of these adhesive tabs were applied to create the mosaic backdrop for her collection, while the show’s fnale was a spectacular pink Post-it ball gown with extended train. Ruiz de la Prada has long been a champion of colour and was one of the frst designers to bring vibrant prints and bold tones to the event.

was juxtaposed with print and
texture, referencing Darger’s sta-
tus as an outsider artist. ‘I like his
non-technical way of making art-
work,’ Rial explained.
The result was short dress-
es dotted with cultural motifs,
scarves adorned with patriotic
stars and stripes, and pleated tu-
nics in a heavy wool felt that evoked
heritage uniforms. ‘I tried to make
the collection have a particular
focus on details and texture,’ said
Rial. ‘That’s why I developed the

diferent prints and I embroidered
pieces. I took a lot of care in the se-
lection of materials.’
David Delfn was working as a
painter when he designed his frst
clothing collection and his back-
ground in the mixed mediums
of paper, canvas and wood eased
his transition between the two.
Delfn has shown at both Madrid
and New York fashion weeks and
his work frequently references en-
during historical artefacts, such
as handwritten text. This season,
grey-blue cotton skirts and suits
printed with letters and symbols,
in red, yellow, black and white,
evoke footprints of the past in a
thoroughly modern way.
Another designer who is part
of this fashion-as-art movement
is Eva Soto Conde. Conde, a fne
arts graduate, is renowned for her
signature architectural designs and
distinctive, vivid colour palettes.
For spring/summer 2015, Conde
presented show-stopping sculpted
dresses in saturated tones of scar-
let, crimson and canary yellow
– so architecturally rich that they
looked as though they had emerged
from a 3D printer.
All of these diverse designers
share a common desire to docu-
ment a concept using a variety of
diferent mediums, rather than
a single method – an approach
that’s more commonly found in
the art world. Enrique Yáñez is a

Above (from top): Espacio de las Artes, El Corte Inglés; Destructive Geometry by Enrique Yáñez
Madrid-based designer whose use
of mixed medium on canvas dis-
plays his reluctance to commit to
a specifc technique. ‘I feel a con-
stant pull towards new ideas, pro-
cesses and compositions; to physi-
cal colour strengths, techniques
and materials,’ Yáñez explains.
As a result, his works Geometry
Destructive and Man Drinking
Cofee are exploratory pieces that
refrain from making any grandiose
conclusions and, instead, are con-
tent to just be.
While Yáñez represents the
more abstract end of the scale, art
and fashion are increasingly fnd-
ing common ground on the high
street. El Corte Inglés, the Span-
ish department store, now has a
dedicated art gallery in its fag-
ship store. Espacio de las Artes is
invested in providing a platform to
document the creative process, in
addition to selling art itself. Watch
and jewellery retailer Rabat has
also broadened its remit to include
jewellery of a much more direc-
tional quality. Coloured quartz
collections that refect the style of
visionary jewellers like Tom Binns
are one example.
Madrid’s fashion industry cur-
rently has a creative contingent
sending a fresh ripple of invention
through its heart; breaking down
the walls of convention to reveal a
city that now has fashion down to
a fne art

CAFÉ SOCIETYMadrid’s charming and original cafés ofer
much more than just a great cup of cofee,
as Isabella Redmond Styles discovers
Madrid is renowned for its tapas
spots and late-night bars but the
city’s cafés are among some of the
best in Europe. Warm and wel-
coming, they are the perfect place
to relax, people-watch and soak up
the capital’s vibrant atmosphere.
After a day spent sightseeing,
there are few better ways to un-
wind than with a visit to café and
bookshop La Fugitiva, where visi-
tors are encouraged to browse the
store’s impressive collection of lit-
erature as they eat and drink. The
popularity of local favourite Delic
is due to its eclectic menu, exten-
sive opening hours and supply of
great cofee and cocktails.
Those who love organic food
will appreciate the concept be-
hind the chic and colourful Mama
Campo, which combines an or-
ganic grocery store with a café
and restaurant. In the Salamanca
district, French patisserie Fonty
ofers mouth-watering pastries
and savoury dishes – perfect pick-
me-ups at any time of day.
SHOP | 49
D E L I C
Delic is open from 11am to 2am,
Tuesday to Sunday, and is loved
as much for its great food and
drink as its generous trading
hours. The cafè has been a gour-
met institution in Madrid since
1998 and customers love to stop
by for a plate of bruschetta, or a
pizza topped with mozzarella, so-
brasada sausage from Huelva and
quince. The menu also includes
tacos, empanadas and an abun-
dance of cakes, from courgette
to chocolate and hazelnut. After
dark, the café transforms into the
perfect cocktail spot where gin
and tonics are something of a sig-
nature drink, thanks to Delic’s ex-
tensive collection of internation-
ally sourced gins.

Fonty is an eclectic mix of infuenc-
es. Drawing inspiration for its name
from the French town of Fontaine-
bleu, the patisserie is based in one
of Madrid’s smartest neighbour-
hoods. Its interior references both
America’s East Coast and a typical
Parisian café. Founder and owner
Marie Valdez is an authority when
it comes to French patisserie and
viennoiserie, and the café’s sweet
treats, inspired by Valdez’s travels
around Europe, America and Asia,
are a highlight. There’s also great
cofee and plenty of lunchtime op-
tions such as freshly made ricotta
and spinach quiches, sandwiches
and salads. At the weekend, it’s a
popular brunch spot, serving up
eggs Benedict and pancakes, with a
side of well-made cocktails.

Испанские дизайнеры все чаще обращаются к мировому культурному наследию в поисках вдохновения для своих новых коллекций. Бет Дрюс рассказывает о показах Мадридской недели моды, где зачастую сливаются мода и искусство
38: The Art Of Fashion
Мода как искусство
Мадридская модная неделя Mercedes-Benz показала: дизайнеры Испании все чаще отказываются от предсказуемости и консервативности в пользу концептуально новой эстетики. Тем самым, они преображают и облик испанской столицы на модной карте мира, составляя достойную конкуренцию самым ярким звездам глобального уровня.
Агата Руис де ла Прада,
РУССКИЙ ПЕРЕВОД
globalblue.com
76
работая над коллекцией весна/лето 2015, вдохновилась творческими возможностями стикеров для записей Post-it. Несомненно, их флуоресцентные оттенки не останутся незамеченными на общем модном ландшафте. Дизайнер использовала тысячи этих маленьких листочков для оформления мозаичного фона своего показа. Более того, последней на подиум поднялась модель во впечатляющем бальном платье, полностью собранном из таких стикеров, включая длинный шлейф. Яркая палитра сделала имя Агате Руис де ла Прада: именно она первой показала в Мадриде смелые принты и контрастные оттенки.
«Мадридская неделя моды служит и зеркалом, и продолжением крупных модных фестивалей Парижа, Милана и Нью-Йорка», - отмечает комментатор Сулейман Анайя на портале Business of Fashion. Поэтому вполне логично, что в последние сезоны интерес к необычному и бунтарскому распространился с парижских и лондонских подиумов на мадридские.
Дебютная коллекция Елены Риаль вызвала немало разговоров: дизайнер использовала различные технические средства, чтобы передать дух книги американского писателя и художника Генри Дарджера «История девочек Вивиан». Ей удалось искусно соединить
историю и современность: на национальных костюмах весьма органично смотрятся принты и текстуры. Это призвано напомнить, что Дарджер был представителем так называемого наивного искусства: «Мне нравятся его совершенно неформальные подходы к созданию художественных полотен», - объясняет Риаль. Короткие платья из ее коллекции
77
украшены этническими узорами, шарфы сделаны в виде звездно-полосатого американского флага, а плотные шерстяные жакеты со складками напоминают униформу. «Работая над коллекцией, я старалась сделать акцент на детали и текстуры, - делится Риаль. – Отсюда на многих вещах появились принты и вышивка. Особое внимание я уделяла подбору тканей».
Давид Делфин создал первую коллекцию, работая маляром. Близкое знакомство с такими материалами, как бумага, холст и дерево, упростили переход из одной профессии в другую. Его необычные работы уже были представлены на модных неделях в Мадриде и Нью-Йорке. В коллекциях Делфина можно увидеть отсылки к бессмертным историческим артефактам, как, например, написанный от руки текст. В этом сезоне красные, желтые, черные и белые буквы и символы на серо-синих хлопковых юбках и костюмах стали самым современным способом напомнить о важных вехах прошлого.
Ева Сото Конде также воспринимает моду как искусство. Выпускница факультета изобразительных искусств, она создает узнаваемые структурные вещи насыщенных цветов. К сезону весна/лето 2015 Конде подготовила приковывающие внимание платья алого, малинового и канареечно желтого оттенков. Они похожи на архитектурные композиции, будто бы напечатанные 3D-принтером.
Коллекции этих дизайнеров не похожи друг на друга. Но их объединяет желание реализовать свою неповторимую идею множеством различных средств. И такой подход роднит моду с искусством. Мадридский
globalblue.com

дизайнер Энрике Яньес использует на одном полотне сразу несколько техник, не отдавая предпочтения какой-то одной. «Я постоянно чувствую потребность двигаться вперед.
Меня ведут идеи, процессы и композиции, будь то сила цвета, техника или материал», - объясняет Яньес. Поэтому его работы Geometry Destructive и Man Drinking Cofee отражают исследовательский процесс и в то же время обходятся без грандиозных выводов: их задача – просто быть эстетическим объектом.
Творчество Яньеса абстрактно и воплощает одну из крайностей. Но в то же время искусство и мода постепенно сближаются и в экономичном сегменте. Во флагманском универмаге сети El Corte Inglés открылась арт-галерея Espacio de las Artes. Помимо непосредственной продажи искусства, ее задача – зафиксировать творческий процесс. Ритейлер часов и украшений Rabat также обратился к ювелирному искусству, включив в свой ассортимент цветные кварцевые коллекции ювелиров-художников, например, Тома Биннса.
Активные участники испанского модного процесса создали новое течение. Преодолевая границы привычного, они раскрывают Мадрид как город, в котором мода связана с изобразительными искусствами.agatharuizdelaprada.com, elenarial.com, davidelfn.com, evasotoconde.com, enriqueyáñez.com
