The Catch of Unsung Spanish Designers

The rule of thumb when shopping in Spain or in any other countries for that matter is to root items that are created by the most famous brands that are, more often than not, known worldwide. However, for bona fide wise shoppers, purchasing amusing items made by unknown designers should be the case because this is their key towards getting the best of the best from the particular country that they visited. Carrying an attitude that is not centered on branded pieces is helpful, especially when you are coming by Spain where many not-so-well-known designers make the top pieces among the crop.

For once, forget about Custo Barcelona of the famed tandem of brothers Custodio and David Dalmau, ZARA chains of the High Street, and Inditex of Amancio Ortega because those that belong in the small-scale category like Josep Font, Lydia Delgado, Miriam Ocariz, Juan Martin, Roberto Diz, Amaya Arzuaga, and Hannibal Laguna are intent to make waves with their diversified, inventive, and dynamic styles. They were schooled well in the many fashion schools around Spain, from Andalusia to Galicia, and the kind of teaching that they got is noticeable on the kind of lavish designs they were able to churn out.
