a feminine woman, lush; very careful design and tailoring and a certain admiration for the classics are the details that define Pablo Lanzarote.
I liked his roll because he gets give elegance a twist with a very modern avant-garde touch. In addition, throughout the interview, he shows us, in addition to his experience,, the opinion that the current national and international market deserves…
Today I present to you Paul Lanzarote who is dedicated to the world of moda since 5 years when he studied design, pattern making and haute couture in Seville to finish his training with a Master in Estilismo and Fashion Image in Madrid and a Chair with the designer Elio Berhanyer. He currently has his own firm and works in Seville from his workshop.
-¿How your passion for fashion was born and how you decided to dedicate yourself to it?
almost without realizing. From a young age you do not realize that you are worth it for this but you do love it and that people recognize it until you start collaborating on things and you find yourself involved without being able to get out of this wheel.
– ¿What do you like most and what you least like about creating fashion?
What else is that precisely, fashion creation. see something on the street – that a priori you do not know if it will be successful or on the contrary it will fail – and that people accept it to the point of wearing it is a great satisfaction. the least, the very Neanderthal mentality that we sometimes have for fashion in certain places in Spain.
– ¿Who are your reference designers in Spain? E International?
Spain is full of good fashion creators. I think someone relevant in national fashion is Juanjo Oliva, nothing similar to my style but with an impeccable execution and approach throughout. International without a doubt John Galliano, the great genius, although I also highlight the work of Zuhair Murad, George Hobeika o Elie Saab.
– At the market level, ¿How do you rate the current Spanish fashion?? ¿and internationally?
I think that fashion is going through two parallel aspects but at the same time very different. The first firms remain at the top and the emerging ones are making their way little by little. Obviously the current situation affects but creative fashion is a luxury item and this sector has not declined too much. If it is true that the franchises and brands of pronto moda do a wonderful job at competitive prices and a great job as a coolhunter that as a consumer is great but as a creator it can partially affect.
– Platforms such as Andalucía de Moda and samples of new or emerging designers… ¿What do they mean in the career of designers today?
Well those are great ideas.! I think you have to be seen, both the consecrated, like those of us who have our site half done or those who are giving cane from below that are not few. When we all started we have done contests for beginners and they are experiences that must be lived.
– ¿What are the bases that support your designs and your style??
Well, the complete study of the client, the execution of the pattern and a good confection. As for lines, I always bet on a feminine and exuberant woman. I like that women feel more woman than any other.
– Tell us how the concept of your latest collection and the idea emerges.
How will you know my Spring/Summer collection? 2012 he calls Creation, and arises listening to the soundtrack of La Dolce Vita one night at home. I love the decade of the 50, their actresses, their customs… and I wanted to honor the beautiful Italy.
– ¿What are you cooking? We advance some projects or plans…
Well right now we are producing the collection presented and I am already preparing Fall/Winter 2012/13 although I just closed (and I tell you in scoop) a collection of boy's and girl's shirts that will be on sale very soon.
