Minku Review – Kutxa Kultur Lana 2012 – Ali de Bali
Friday evening in the showroom. I comment to Alicia Martinez Horcajo of Ali de Bali that she must like silver. She nods and smiles and says yes. I proceed to feel like a guy who has just delivered a cheesy

Minku Review – Kutxa Kultur Lana 2012 – Lasurtiz
On Sunday morning I was driving with Juan’s dad to Bilbao airport when he pushed ‘Play’ on a mixtape he had of hits from the 70s. Amidst American Pie, Hotel California and Take me Home, Country Roads, David Bowie’s Starman

Mikel Colás of Mikelcolas presented a collection of smart workwear for man and for woman, executed in shades of khaki and burgundy. But while the collection saw the Mikelcolas man in spunky lace-ups, the Mikelcolas woman lived life on the

Minku Review – Kutxa Kultur Lana 2012 – Numero9
Affable design duo Paula Gonzalez and Clara Virgili of NumeroNueve struck a masterful balance between prints and solids with their Spring/Summer 2013 show at Kutxa Kultur Lana. They also gave the audience lots of much-welcomed on-stage interaction: as each model

Minku Review – Kutxa Kultur Lana 2012 – LeTitare
Four words: hand-detailed leather high-waisted shorts. Not enough to make you drool? LeTitare’s Irati Guarretxena stepped things up a notch at the 2012 Kutxa Kultur Lana fashion show with her artful combination of worked leather and flowing fabric. Capes, double-collars

Minku Review – Kutxa Kultur Lana 2012 – Azabala
Designer Amaia Zabala of Azabala sent a mature, if somber collection down the Kutxa Kultur Lana runway. The collection conveyed an understated sophistication, and reflected Zabala’s mastery of cut, colour and balance. Back in the showroom, heavy wool fabrics dominated

After visiting Debora in the showroom and seeing the architctural jewelry she makes under her label Q, it was nice to also see how she would translate her ken for mixing materials into womenswear. Assymetric cuts, diaphanous fabrics, slicked hair,

As women, we often spend a lot of time and energy looking like we haven’t tried at all. The triple-digit salon visit to achieve just-woke-up hair, the nude look that takes 45 minutes to create, the t-shirt made from finely-woven

Plaits are in at Maia Apaolaza and you’ll do well to join the party. Maia’s girls graced the catwalk adorned with plaits just about everywhere but in their hair: sleeves, collar line, shoulders, pockets, waist. But the real winner in
