Piluca Bayarri AW19 Collection

In 1984, Piluca Bayarri left her hometown of Valencia for the island of Ibiza. Visiting for the very first time, she fell madly in love with the island – just like the rest of us! After fifteen days admiring everything Ibiza had to offer, Piluca Bayarri decided that she wanted to spend the rest of her life on the beautiful island. She has even said in her own words, “It is the place where I want to be buried when the moment arrives” and we don’t think many of us could disagree! Fast-forward 35 years and Bayarri has now cemented herself as one of the most important names in Ibiza fashion. Her new AW19 collection came out in June, which features skulls on completely original designed jackets – perfectly fitting with Halloween!

Skull Prints

On the AW19 jackets, many of her unique designs feature the infamous Calavera skull prints. Notorious for being a symbol of the Day of the Dead festival and the Roman Catholic All Soul’s Day, the skulls bring a ghoulie feel to the collection – whilst looking suave and stylish at the same time! In Mexico they celebrate the colourful Día de los Muertos – who hasn’t seen the spectacular scenes in James Bond’s ‘Spectre’ film, of course, and that’s exactly where those fun-looking skulls actually originate from!
Accompanied with the skulls are camouflage prints that not only are aesthetically pleasing, they’re downright funky we say, but also further enhance the spooky feeling to the jackets. What’s not to like?! These jackets can be bought in either dark or brighter shades, many of them donning the Calavera skulls. Whichever colour you feel is the most eye catching, one thing is for certain, nobody will miss the terrifying skull, so you’re guaranteed a bit of an entrance, wherever you wear them to!

Design

Every single piece in this collection has its own completely original, unique design – much to the credit of the sensational Bayarri! As well as including the skulls, the collection has lace panels on the back and include great trimmings like fringed braids and some mega cool studded epaulettes! This design makes you think of one thing and one thing only: Ibiza! Mirroring the famous culture and antics that Ibiza has to offer, the AW19 collection is desirable not just for permanent Ibiza residents, but everyone visiting the island, including tourists passing by. After all, Bayarri first came to Ibiza as a tourist herself! Who knows, the beautiful design could inspire the next wave of budding, Ibizan designers!

Celebrity Approval

As if you didn’t need any more convincing that the collection is undoubtedly amazing, a couple of famous figures have voiced their approval! Model, actress and businesswoman, Naomi Campbell is a well-known fan of Bayarri’s work – and who are we to say she’s wrong! Also, Kate Moss has even declared her love for Bayarri’s collection. Of course, she’s the original rock chick anyway! So, unless you’re going against the informed opinions of these industry experts, we have no doubt you find the AW19 collection as fascinating as TA-DAH.TV does!!
