I initially imagined the duo, Cardona Bonache, as a very serious potential business. Something that would work on a global scale and aesthetically akin to classic Calvin Klein. A friend argued that it was more aligned with Balenciaga and the argument that these are really involved patterns is a point well taken. Taken out of the context of comparisons there is no comparing this teams sleekness in the abbreviated week and, credit due, they speak their own language. A decisive maneuver around the concept of bellows that followed through the collection down to the shoes.
