Alejandro Gómez Palomo Presents Limbo Collection in Madrid
After a decade in the fashion industry and now based in Madrid, Alejandro Gómez Palomo is making waves with his latest coed collection titled Limbo. The collection reflects the current uncertain state of the world, with Palomo describing fashion as a form of survival in these challenging times.
Palomo’s customers are known for their love of luxury and opulence, favoring sophisticated and extravagant pieces over casual and carefree styles. The Limbo collection showcases an ’80s inspired aesthetic, featuring bold silhouettes and sculpted waistlines. From round-shouldered trench coats to structured peplum details, each piece exudes a sense of drama and sophistication.
One of the standout elements of the collection is the interchangeability of men’s and women’s pieces. Women’s peplums are mirrored by men’s cummerbunds, blurring the lines between traditional gender norms in fashion. Palomo’s menswear options are soft and seductive, with a focus on highlighting the natural curves of the body.
As the collection explores the concept of limbo as an in-between state, Palomo plays with contrasts and contradictions in his designs. Looks 21 and 24 showcase a mix of his-and-her garments, with the female model exuding a sense of ease while the male model embodies a more sculptural aesthetic. This juxtaposition creates a dynamic and visually compelling narrative within the collection.
