LEOCADIA FANDOS CASAMITJANA

When I was a kid I used to dream of the creative power of fashion as a world composed of huge gathered silk dresses that would bring new exciting possibilities to people's identities. That dream helped me focus and brought me all the way to the United Kingdom to study BA Fashion Design and Development at London College of Fashion. However, during that period I realised the harsh truth: that dreamy vision was very inspiring but not the only reality I was going to face as a designer in the industry.

The world around us is evolving and we, as consumers and designers, are becoming more aware. New generations must challenge and reimagine the contemporary dynamics of our industry.
