Spanish Fashion
Fashion has always been important to the Spanish but until recently they haven’t had a home-grown fashion industry and
have imported most of their clothing. All that is now changing, however. The Spanish government is busily promoting the
clothing and fashion sectors of the textile industry.
Spain is starting almost from scratch when compared to fashionable competitors like Italy and France. But there is activity
everywhere. Fashion designers and people in business are working together to support the fashion industry. The country
holds fashion fairs twice a year - the Cibeles in Madrid, the Gaudi in Barcelona and a smaller children’s one in Valencia.
The government is trying to create an environment where fashion and textile designers have an opportunity to prosper.
Talented companies and designers can succeed in Spain but although there is much creativity, there is a lack of managerial
experience. Some people still believe that Italy is the place where there are far better chances for designers to succeed. One
highly regarded Spanish designer is now manufacturing her entire line of clothing in partnership with an Italian company. The
problem, as some see it, is that the amount of money provided by the Spanish government is still too little.
Nevertheless, much progress is being made. While the exclusive salons are in the larger cities, studios and boutiques are
opening throughout Spain and many Spaniards are already involved in exporting their clothes. Through their own efforts,
designers are beginning to open shops in France, Italy and Japan. But most fashion houses are quite small, and they are
finding it difficult to create the industrial and financial links needed for growth and expansion. Many designer products are
hard to make, expensive to market and sometimes difficult to sell. But they create a better image for the industry, and you
end up with higher quality products in general. One international critic thinks that young Spanish designers could create fresh
and lively fashions, well able to compete with the industries in France and Italy.
