Fashion and Coolhunting
Last Thursday, I attended the United Legacy fashion competition and runway show at the Vértiz Campus of the University of Londres, organized by the Fashion Design program. (Mexico City) All of the participants were alumni who presented three of the most iconic looks from their graduate collections. The prize consisted of a scholarship designed to support them […]
Yesterday, I went window shopping with my significant other at Liverpool, a department store in Mexico City. Two days ago, while scrolling through fashion news on Instagram, I came across the new collaboration between the Mexican artisanal sustainable brand Someone Somewhere and Adidas. The collaboration between Someone Somewhere and Adidas is part of the launch surrounding Mexico’s third jersey for the FIFA World […]
A couple of weeks ago, I visited the store and studio of CRUDA, the brand founded by Costa Rican designer Pamela Hernández. Back in 2021, I wrote about the brand and its approach to sustainable, ethical footwear, so experiencing the space in person felt especially meaningful. Now, five years later, I had the opportunity to […]
Last Thursday, I went to Bomboti in Polanco for the opening of the “CARNAVAL” exhibition by 1/8 Takamura.

A few days ago, I received an invitation to Alessandra Petersen’s pop-up store in Mexico City. I was so happy to hear about it—I’ve been following her career since I met her a few years ago at the Caravana Americana Pop-Up and I also had the opportunity to interview her during the COVID pandemic for […]
Last Friday I was invited to Fundamentally to behold Jorge Sánchez’s new collection ECLOSION. I saw the collection and I instantly fell in love with the fabric and the way it seemed so fresh and wearable for a hot summer day.
Yesterday I had the chance to go to Galería L to visit the collection “No One’s Land” ( La Tierra de Nadie) by fashion designer Ximena Corcuera. I found the collection and exhibition very moving, just a couple of weeks ago we faced Donald’s Trump deportation and migrant situation and it broke my heart to […]
A few days ago I was invited to attend the “Inverso” runway show by mexican fashion brand BERNARDA, that took place in the emblematic “Teatro de los Insurgentes” in Mexico City. Two months ago I had the opportunity to meet designer Paola Hinojos, who is behind BERNARDA in person, and it was a very nice […]
