Skirt Suit – (Antonio Alvarado) Previous Next


Artist:

Date: 1987

Museum: Museo del Traje (Madrid, Spain)

Technique: Cloth

Skirt suit made up of a wool shirt, tie, tights, and wool skirt and jacket decorated with embroidery representing the map of Spain with a five-point star on the front and the brand logo on the back. Ground-breaking, difficult, imaginative and greatly influenced by punk aesthetics, Antonio Alvarado presented his first collection in 1974. Versatile in the extreme, his creativity has enabled him to explore various terrains, from tailoring to the design of wrist watches. In his creations, joyful colours that inject large doses of irony take precedence. Alvarado believes in a casual and urban woman, brimming with an innocent sexuality. In this case, he is inspired by the preppy wear of American university students.
