Showing at Madrid's Mercedes Benz Fashion Week, the Ruizgalán Spring/Summer 2013 runway presentation is entitled 'New Life.' With the use of recycled materials, the innovative designer is able to give plastic shopping bags, old clothes, household accessories and other donated items a second chance at life.
From IKEA store bags to dated clothing pieces, these aged items are cut up and stitched together to create high-fashion menswear looks. The cleverly conceived Ruizgalán Spring/Summer 2013 collection references a retro athletic-wear aesthetic while remaining distinctive and fashion-forward for the next generation.
The designer creates an edgy and eclectic sportswear collection that advocates the practice of sustainable style. He embraces reusable materials and creates a slew of future-friendly menswear. These styles are aesthetically authentic while remaining economically and ecologically responsible in their design concept.
