Trends from Madrid

 

London may be one of the worlds greatest fashion capitals but as any good designer knows a broad spectrum of ideas and influences is key in designing the perfect collection. This is why FashionCapital endeavours to bring you a unique insight into some of the world's most interesting and varied cultures. The most recent being the Spanish capital of Madrid.

Madrid is a beautiful city combing historical, architectural highlights with a modern infrastructure. It oozes culture with many of the most famous art galleries and museums situated in the city.  

Fast becoming recognised as a leading fashion destination, Madrid has been rivalling with Barcelona to obtain the title as Fashion Capital of Spain. In Madrid fashion weeks are also organised with main events being held at the Pasarela Cibeles (Cibeles Catwalk). Twice a year, Madrid-based designers, such as Agatha Ruiz de la Prada, Angel Schlesser and Javier Larrainar, among many others, present their creations and latest collections.

Here's a sneak preview of some of the stunning imagery found in the stylish city. Members however will have access to the full gallery.
