Hot or Not? Christian Lacroix’s Patchwork for Desigual


After his brand declared bankrupt we haven’t heard from Christian Lacroix much. But the designer hasn’t given up. He spent time designing stage costumes, hotels, and trams, and serving as the French mint’s artistic adviser. But now he is back to serious fashion.
In collaboration with Spanish brand Desigual the couturier has already created a collection of 30 pieces that includes including jackets, skirts, and lingerie.

The Desigual collection has been previewed this week at Barcelona Fashion Week. Outfits look amazing. I have never thought patchwork can look that gorgeous. But Christian Lacroix is the best person to describe his works:
I was awestruck by the first girl dressed by Desigual that I saw in Paris. As I watched her, I could recognise in her a member of my own tribe. It was an explosion of colors and patchwork under the elegant, discreet and always monotonous French sky. It was fantastic, truly love at first sight, a breath of fresh air, all multicoloured, scorching, revitalizing, radiating Mediterranean colours and flavours and creeping into this global and colourless magma inhabited by zombies and clones.”
