Fashion Design in the Canaries

Written by Andy Montgomery on 04 November 2009 | 1 Comment | Fashion, Lifestyle

Young Canarian fashion designers were given a window onto their work last week when the Teatro Leal in La Laguna hosted the final of the ‘Young Designers’ competition. Bold and innovate designs used lace, leather, satin and organza to create a range of looks from contemporary Carmen Miranda through 21st century princess to urban Borg-style.

The winner was Osvaldo Machín from Lanzarote with his ‘Moveable Nature’ collection.

With this sort of quality and creativity in the pipeline, the future of Canarian fashion design is looking very bright indeed.
