Custo Barcelona was the grand finale of the second day at the Mercedes-Benz Berlin Fashion Week. Although there was the HUGO BOSS show around the same time, there were still tons of people at Custo wanting a seat so everyone had to wait about 15 minutes until we finally got our seats where we found a sample of the new Custo Barcelona fragrance. Then the show started and you could immediately see where this was going: Hippie meets Surfer with a touch of Matthew Williamson. There were some pieces I really loved, like the all blue mini dress that looked like a wonderful blue ocean or the short studded jackets. I also liked the sleek long hair of the models and the colorful shoes. They played a cool remix of “Suspicious Minds” and the models seemed pretty professional although one of them gave us attitude backstage because we wanted one picture (isn’t that what theyre supposed to do? Pose for pics?). I also got a short interview with the designer of Custo Barcelona. He told me that Custo Barcelona was founded over 20 years ago and that his first designs were influenced by surfing. You can still see that influence nowadays in my opinion. He has over 60 stores worldwide and will open another 7 in the near future, most of them in the states.  Here are some pics taken by William Chung of course ; )
