Desigual Fall/Winter 2010
What's not to love about the Barcelona-based company's mixed print patchwork and rainbow palette.
Latest news is a resurrection for French couturier, Christian Lacroix. Poor Monsieur Lacroix went through bankruptcy in 2009 and cannot even design under his name anymore. Enter a made-in-heaven collaboration with Desigual.

Lacroix muses on the first time he saw a girl wearing Desigual in Paris (taken from The Telegraph, Jan. 21, 2011):
"As I watched her, I could recognise in her a member of my own tribe. It was an explosion of colours and patchwork under the elegant, discreet and always monotonous French sky. It was fantastic, truly love at first sight, a breath of fresh air, all multicoloured, scorching, revitalising, radiating Mediterranean colours and flavours and creeping into this global and colourless magma inhabited by zombies and clones."
Lacroix has renamed his label "Monsieur C. Lacroix". I am excited to see what comes out of this collaboration!
