    The Inspo: From ancient times to today, flowers have been a universal language of emotion, expressing deep feelings and harmony. They symbolise everything from beauty and fertility to the transience of life, and used to convey unspoken messages. Each flower had a specific meaning in the language of flowers.





    The Collab: Our collaboration with Liliana Osorio brings a new artistic dimension to this collection. All pieces are adorned with images of natural flowers, meticulously selected and cared for by the photographer, then captured and transformed into exclusive prints.

        ...A Dialogue Between Fashion And Architecture by Blanca Buisan & Pablitius

        Featured in Calle 52 Magazine




        About ARCHETYPUS, In Their Own Words:


        This editorial aims to concisely showcase the architecture, textures, and light of some buildings in Madrid in harmony with fashion. While seemingly unrelated, architecture and fashion are visual languages with parallel elements like light, form, and colour to address human needs. Both are vehicles helping people move within society and inhabit it comfortably and appropriately for the times. We have chosen a building in Moncloa's neighbourhood in Madrid, simple yet elegant and versatile, similar to the designs of the brand Pio Rio Branco, which has a timeless and genderless touch. Fashion, like architecture, is moving closer to these parameters.
