BIO
After studying at the Polytechnic School of Madrid, at the Fachhochschule Trier (Germany) and at London Central Saint Martin and having proved my worth by working in several workshop’s firms, I decided to create my own brand, in 2004, Marlota, a reflection of my personality and my interests.
Three years later, in 2007, I began to present my collections in Paris; then I realized that my work could touch many people, people from various countries and with different backgrounds. From that moment on, crossing borders became a priority.
Defining my work is difficult, I do not like labels since they never fit reality: I prefer to move among nuances: between idealism and pragmatism, between emotional and intellectual, rough and delicate.
Duality is always present in what I do, as reflected by the marriage of masculine jackets and very feminine clothes.
I still have this memory of an old English coat that I found once when I was 15 and which I kept for years.
Even old, those memories leave a mark.
The emotions are the motor of my work.
