Designer spotlight: Juanma by el Cuco Stephanie AndersonJuly 18, 20140 viewsdesignFashionStyle0 Comments0 views Juanma is a fashion label by a Spanish designer. His latest collection features a wholly simplistic yet stylish look with many sharp and sleek cut lines and block colours that can be seen as monochromatic with a touch of very slightly greenish blue and red tones. We love the mixed styles of smart and modern together to bring about that smart-casual look, which would be appealing for the majority of events that they can be worn in. It can also give a tomboyish feeling; the black trousers, in what seems to be a one-piece suit, are of short length and cut off to expose the ankles and the long length of dark, lightweight fabric to create a train effect at the back on some pieces. Although the colours seem to be dark, the collection is for spring and summer with its light, soft and breathable materials and fabrics. The almost symmetrical and classical collection can be topped off with accessories such as gold necklaces, as styled in one or two photos and bracelet cuffs. Due to the nature of the simplistic pieces here, almost anything that has lots of detail in the accessories can be worn to balance things out, as well to make a bold statement and convey individuality, meaning that the collection is fully flexible that are made easy to be styled with other things. The designer of this collection is fully educated in fashion design styling and industrial pattern making at a school of arts in Barcelona, Spain. Playing with mixing textures and volumes, he combines classics and modernity to create a nostalgic spirit as well as eliciting rebellious and provocative sides.
