Last day of Valencia Fashion Week. Our 3 chaotic fashion-centric days at the local Fashion Week ended with this shows which were the final bang to the new Spring/Summer season collections. Some of the most established designers around Valencia like Eugenio Loarce, María Cózar Couture and Anillarte  were in charge to close not only this three day staging, but also a whole year of hard work, fittings and tests to check that everything is perfect, to assure that every piece will be a success.

On a Fashion Week whose main characters have been emerging designers, enjoying shows featuring pieces made by designers with lots of years on their back just felt like seeing schoolmasters teaching how it all works to their pupils. The contrast was interesting and engaging at the same time.

Signs of delicacy, elegance and softness were constant. María Cózar Couture was in charge to close this XVII Valencia Fashion Week, on a super crowded show preceded by the Awards given to designers and their collections, including the new designers and the Zona D. A show full of lace, super flowy patterns modeling soft and romantic silhouettes.  

Valencia Fashion Week 2014, XVI Edition. The city where I live may not be as large or even known as Milan or NYC, but we also live fashion here and so we have a local Fashion Week where some Spanish designers show their collections, and where we can enjoy fashion, share our experiences with friends and live style.

This local Fashion Week edition has been full of complaints and controversy, due to the ''exclusivity'' thing which already happened on last New York Fashion Week's events (limited tickets, smaller spaces...). I was really lucky to be invited this year (in fact, first year of FW for me...) but, I know a lot of bloggers couldn't attend and some people said that even some press and media had no accreditations. The truth is that I really missed the fact of seeing more people around there, different things and more street style.

I was invited to Eugenio Loarce and Anillarte catwalks held in the ''City Museum''. It's an awesome place, full of a kind of luxurious atmosphere, ancient but perfectly restored where most of the events were developed. Surrounded by cameras, lighting, soft fabrics and in between catwalk and catwalk I met Fashionart team which collections I already spotted the week before.

I spent a really lovely evening and it was such a new experience for me I hope to live again next season!

Fashionart. Nice to meet you! :)
