For those lucky enough to make it to the showroom, did you see if there is a Women's version of the Flight Suit shown in the Menswear runway?
I was really looking forward to seeing it reimagined for this collection.
Still not sold on the iridescent fabrics, but amazed by everything else.
That huge lighter was a nice bonus, haha.

Incredible collection. I love the massive gowns in particular, they look like they're inspired by the Victorian era but seeing as TECUATL has been in large part about Mexican heritage I wonder if it's something else. Anyone here know about Mexican fashion history?
This was incredible. Rick is in his best shape for the past couple of seasons.

According to some reviews I read on the internet (haha) the Mexican influences were:
- María Felix, which was an iconic Diva from the mexican film industry in the past century; apparently Rick's father used to take the family to see Maria Felix's movies when he was young
- Luis Barragán, who was a very famous architect known for doing some sort of colorful brutalism (huge concrete blocs , but painted in mexican colors if I may).
Not sure about the other Mexican influences in this collection, which still carries a lot of the Larry Legaspi vibe.

Well I guess the colours are in reference to Luis Barragán which is keeping in line with his aesthetics since referencing architecture, modernist art, furniture etc. has been a staple of his collections for a good while.
I do get it though being not a colourful dresser. Haha
Don’t get me wrong, I do like the colors, just not the iridescent fabrics.
I don’t like iridescent anything (was kind of a trend at some design agencies a while ago).
