Forty years ago, Pepe Botella opened his first bridal and ceremonial wear shop in his native city of Alicante. From the outset, the designer’s aim was to find new patterns and fabrics that moved away from the traditional severity and stiffness of bridal gowns. His first collection was launched under the Pepe Botella brand in 1988, and was an early indication of the freedom of movement and original colour use that were to characterise his designs from then on.

Far from the typical stereotypes of the Mediterranean, Pepe Botella is inspired by his own origins, thinking of the present and the future. Beyond the Phoenicians, Greeks and Romans, the Mediterranean is a modern, active, entrepreneur culture. It is the Mediterranean of the Ciudad de las Artes in Valencia and the Parc del Fòrum in Barcelona. The same sea, the same light, the same colours that inspire post modern architecture, looking at the blue of the Mediterranean Sea, bathed with its light.

The new collection from the Alicante firm is based on highly developed patterns, treated from an architectural point of view. Structured shapes, made with material, needle and thread, playing with the elegant, classical materials of brides, in which silk fabrics are the protagonist, with mikados, dupioni and organdies. You will also find light, supple gauzes and coupé organdies.

The Mediterranean, modernity and haute couture: the three sources of inspiration for the new Pepe Botella collection.
