Every six months so passionate about moda (and some – many more good – posturing) We give us appointment at IFEMA (¡That enclosure close to everything, welcoming and wonderful!) to attend a new edition of Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Madrid a.k.a La Merche b.k.a Cibeles.This weekend he celebrated his 65ª edition – MBFWM17 – presenting proposals for autumn / winter 2016/17 and of course I could not miss it, because I'm much of a bombing Register.

Charo Izquierdo First Edition. The new director of the runway began its journey a few months ago. Following a meeting with the press to present the digital gateway before the appointment at IFEMA could talk to her and I conveyed the desire for improvement and enthusiasm he put into this project again. After good work recognized and professional faces this challenge and, although much remains to work and improve, por supuesto, He has won a vote of confidence. Let's take a vote of confidence and a few issues over shooting. In this first it has already begun to notice some freshness, and I speak not only of changing carpet.

Spanish model tops meeting. Looking back is good sometimes – uh – and if it is done as Juan Duyos did in MBFWM17 it is even better. In its anniversary parade 20 on the catwalk Cibeles proved his worth not only as a designer – with a serie of great looks that reflect the perfect DNA of the brand – but also as a creator of moments since he brought together the best Spanish models of the years on the catwalk 90, defined as "muses, friends and iconos ". The names of Judit Masco, Helena Barquilla, Marina Pérez, Cristina Piaget, Veronica Blume, Almudena Fernandez, Vanessa Lorenzo, Madeleine Hjort, Laura Sanchez and Nieves Álvarez returned to resonate on the carpet awakening memories of many and intrigue of the youngest. wonderful.

Victoria Abril Revolution. Actress Victoria Abril opened with nothing exaggerated acting Andres Sarda parade inspired by the French Revolution. Marie Antoinettes in hoop skirts who clashed with soldiers´in panties. Certainly the first time in April treading the catwalk could not be overlooked and social networks and point topped all the world media. Panties is not much know but no one has overlooked its presence.
 

The Joan´s Secret with Medina Azahara. Andalusian designer Juana Martin presented his collection with rock dyes. ¿Who says that Andalusians do not have a rock vein?? To do this he enlisted the help of the legendary band Medina Azahara who played live on the catwalk 4 of his subjects. Being able to listen live songs as top as "Everything has its end” “I need to breathe” while the models parade it was a real pleasure.

Customizing Madrid. The expected return Custo Dalmau (with his signature Custo Barcelona) gateway to the capital we had everyone intrigued. ¿I would do some kind of wink at MBFWM17? Nada, nothing happened besides the glitter glitter of their looks and a touch that I really liked the parade ¡The "security" zones were seen” of stockings over the thigh!
 

¡Knee!. People who work in fashion also eat, but little during MBFWM since their cafeteria prices are quite exorbitant. In this edition one of the sponsors was knee that put a booth selling their products through the Cibelespacio and made people happy muuucha.

Farewell to gray background pictures. “¡Come on let's take a piti and a photo!”.  In this edition of La Merche it has been impossible. A guard at the door undaunted prevented downstairs and smoking. Notice, It is expected that the next photos are viralicen in the floating corridor there to the side.

¡What a time when you could egoblog indoors!

Wifi (and improvements for bloggers). It is already known that one's home is where your wifi, and this year have gotten a little bit more IFEMA our home, not only spend so many hours, but by the inclusion of free wifi. One of the promises of the new director was to take better care of us bloggers and digital ¡achieved! We were included in the press room and the room wifi worked like a charm throughout the edition.

Indisputable victory of the EGO. Each year the EGO gets a little harder. It is proposed that young designers the last day of the gateway not only compete for prize money, but also in recognition. No doubt they propose things much more interesting than the consecrated) Even with prosthetic models.

Internationalization is coming. It has tried the first year that social networks MBFWM17 were in Spanish and English, ¡a small step for man but a big step for internationalization!.

TO FORGET

The din of the sitting. Each edition and it seems like the designers (o mejor dicho, its advertising agencies or public relations) do not learn. Names we all know that no occupying spaces vain to go only so it looks like the parade has more cache. People with their ticket in hand who cannot sit in one place due to "an oversight"” of the girl on the stairs. Official catwalk bloggers – let's remember, the organization of MBFWM has appointed us – no place or relegated to “behind the fifth row” with the consequent problem of poor photo quality´s, videos or live broadcasts…  De verdad, if they are not putting remedy to this topic, go to a parade instead of being a joy becomes an ordeal. I understand that many people to be content during a parade, but with a little TLC, patience and safe organization could be improved.

Por cierto, This year I have premiered as an editor at Vanity reflecting on the (low) presence of men's fashion in Mercedes Benz Fashion Week. Do not miss my article ¿What happens to the men in MBFWM17 ?
