COLLECTION BEATRIZ

Philosophy_ The young Beatriz lived in the tower of a Castle, deprived of any freedom for being too beautiful. Her dark and pale world was reduced to the vision of a window that alternated colors, shades and lights, where with just a hint of light her memories remained alive.

A spring happened, and since then it faded. Stolen flowers evoke desire.

Whites, blacks, gold, blues, represent an endless number of sensations and emotions, whims of her snatched desires, of what one day was and what stayed. Picked flowers that will never come out again.

A life across a window that makes way to the imagination of a dreamed world.

Structure_Taking this pattern as a guide to the development of pleats and bellows, it seeks to play with the terms that characterize the philosophy, freedom and oppression of the collection.

It tries to give safety to the woman, and for it, we move in the time towards the present and we put special emphasize on the Guillermodelmar philosophy, freedom and reality, where the fabrics slip outlining the hips with big skirts and adding the corset and repressed bodies typical of the romanticism.

It plays with the before and after of the period, with the contraposition of the object of desire and the reality. The woman is spoilt by handmade, very elaborated necklaces and leather purses. It gives priority to the detail and the femininity giving importance to the complements and the fabrics, and it combines perfectly the present elements with the old ones, adapting them by this way to today’s woman.

A collection inspired by another time, where prints, volumes and colors become alive full of symbolism. From a free and ingenuous white, passing by neutral pastels and blues, to the darkest and oppressed black.

Comfortable fabrics and at the same time sophisticated as cotton, satin, gauze and organza, which take part of an adorned and perfectly engaged set.
