This season, Moisés Nieto celebrated his brand’s 15th birthday, but instead of a lush catwalk show, the designer opted for something more meaningful: an intimate dinner attended by a small group of press and many of his old friends.
“In the end I feel that fashion shows have become cold glasses,” said Nieto. “There is no time to talk, people are in a hurry. You expose your soul, and then it is over in a second. I wanted something else: see the faces around me and above all to slowly celebrate.”
In this more relaxed and private setting, the designer visited some of the striking pieces and patterns that have made him a household name on Spanish fashion. The Line -Up included its characteristic trench -jackets, male outerwear and midi dresses in a palette of neutral tones and beiges. “When I started, I didn’t have a business mindset. You would present 40 looks, and the pieces that the buyers wanted would always repeat. For example, I learned which designs work and which do not work. You learn a lot from your customers.” Nowadays, those customers are more loyal than ever at his unmistakable vessel.
