Moisés Nieto Spain Fall 2025 Collection
This season, Moisés Nieto celebrated the 15th anniversary of his brand, but instead of a lavish runway show, the designer opted for something more meaningful: an intimate dinner attended by a small group of press and many of his longtime friends. 'In the end, I feel like fashion shows have become cold spectacles,' said Nieto. 'There's no time to talk, people are in a rush. You bare your soul, and then it's over in a second. I wanted something different: to see the faces around me and, above all, to celebrate slowly.' In this more relaxed and private setting, the designer revisited some of the standout pieces and patterns that have made him a household name in Spanish fashion. The lineup included his signature trench coats, masculine outerwear, and midi dresses in a palette of neutral tones and beiges. 'When I started, I didn't have any business mindset. You'd present 40 looks, and the pieces the buyers wanted would always repeat. That's how I learned which designs work and which don't. You learn a lot from your customers.' Today, those customers are more loyal than ever to his unmistakable craft.
