RUNWAY: Palomo Spain SS18

At any given time, there seems to be a multitude of fashion weeks concurrently happening. Madrid Fashion Week coincides with the end and beginning of New York Fashion Week and London Fashion Week, respectively. This is partly why it does not get much press outside of Spain. However, a name that some fashion lovers might recognize is Palomo Spain, known for its gender fluidity and embrace of the non-binary. The premise of the SS18 collection was based on the eclectic mix of people who walk through the lobby of a grand hotel and that can be seen from the bellboys who help these cocktail-dress wearing patrons up to their rooms, some complementing their looks with jewels or an ornate shawl or bag while a collaboration with Converse provided a mass-market opportunity for Palomo's fans to get a piece of the brand without breaking the bank with a full on gown.
