Overview
- Launching Tuesday at Barcelona’s Port Vell, the runway lineup featured Escorpion, SKFK, Bolaño, Custo Barcelona and a 50th‑anniversary tribute to Adolfo Domínguez.
- A two‑day European forum on designer‑led fashion wrapped ahead of the shows, where Culture Minister Ernest Urtasun called the sector cultural and strategic and pressed for sustainability and circularity.
- The program runs through Friday with 26 presentations, and organizers added Mexican designer Ricardo Seco to replace Luar after a late cancellation, with Seco set to show his “Orgullo migrante” collection.
- The new site places the catwalk inside a large glass structure where black curtains ensure lighting for video and photography but block promised sea views, and attendees flagged longer access routes and a stretched networking layout.
- Organizers set a €2.8 million budget for this edition, including €500,000 from Barcelona City Council plus infrastructure support, reinforcing 080’s role as a public‑backed platform for sustainable, author fashion.
