his last New York outing<\/a> a year ago. Instead, he channeled his signature genderfluid aesthetic into crisp, wearable pieces in a light palette inspired by Sofia Coppola\u2019s films.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\tModels paraded through a ballroom in the recently renovated Palace hotel for the lunchtime show.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tLampshade dresses with petticoat skirts came in sugared almond shades, while graphic contrasting bows appeared on everything from peplum leather jackets to crisp poplin blouses and slinky ribbed knit tube dresses.<\/p>\n
\n\tFor the men, there were fresh takes on the twin set: think matching jackets and short shorts in pastel leather, cotton or taffeta, for a sweetly subversive effect. Billowing shirts covered in Swarovski crystals and ruffle appliqu\u00e9 trim should please his core clientele.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\n\tWhile it represented a major departure, Palomo said designing his first fully fledged women\u2019s collection was easier than expected.<\/p>\n
\n\t\u201cIt\u2019s been something that has stressed me for years: I wanted to do womenswear, and I was kind of insecure,\u201d Palomo said. \u201cNow that I\u2019m doing it, I realize that it\u2019s exactly the same process, the same references, the same ideas \u2014 only different bodies.\u201d<\/p>\n
\n\tHe titled the line \u201cEighteen\u201d because it was both his 18th collection and a coming of age moment. \u201cIt was perfect, because that\u2019s what we feel right now as well: that we\u2019re becoming an adult, being independent, leaving home,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\n\tThe confident show signaled the brand is gearing up for the next stage of growth, with footwear and handbags<\/a> in the pipeline. \u201cWe\u2019re ready to take on the world,\u201d Palomo said with a grin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Alejandro G\u00f3mez Palomo celebrated the start of a new chapter for his Palomo label with a show at…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":22468,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[146,20730,20731,85,46,20732,20733],"class_list":{"0":"post-22467","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-entertainment","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-footwear","10":"tag-handbags","11":"tag-il","12":"tag-israel","13":"tag-madrid-fashion-week","14":"tag-swarovski"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22467","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22467"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22467\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/22468"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22467"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=22467"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=22467"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
