First confirmation of the ArtEncaixe parade of the XXXV Camariñas Lace Exhibition of the Provincial Council of A Coruña, which is preparing to host one of the most conceptual and demanding proposals of this edition. Textile artisan Lola de Logaro returns to the event to present “Ganapán”, her new capsule collection for 2026.
The proposal explores noir aesthetics to narrate a fascinating dialogue: the collision between the laborious austerity of the Galician coast and the hedonistic rebellion of the modern woman of the 1920s. A collection born from the need to elevate and transform lace.
For the creator, the aim of this collection is to transform a historical survival tool into a true standard of autonomy. “I work with lace as engineering and architecture, with straight lines, repeated modules and classic motifs of that 'subsistence lace' that marked life on the Galician coast‘, explains Lola de Logaro. ’On that basis I create noir silhouettes: relaxed bodies, dropped shoulders, barely defined waists, lengths that move to the rhythm of the step, tassels and transparencies that recall flappers, jazz, the smoke of clubs and the rebellion of the 1920s”.
The designer plays with duality by placing extremely precise laces in patterns that break the norm. “For me, each garment is a small manifesto: the toothpick retains its technical rigor, but moves from the tablecloth and the tray to the body that moves and decides; the survival tool becomes a banner of freedom.”.
“The biggest technical challenge was orchestrating all the other techniques – crochet, knitting, fringes, sewing finishes – so that they add texture and volume without taking away even a millimeter of prominence from the Camariñas lace,” says the designer.
To achieve this, she confesses that she had to work almost like a stage director: “The lace is the main actress and the rest of the techniques are scenography and light. This involves adjusting thread gauges, stitch densities and weights so that the fabric supports the lace piece without deforming it or killing its natural fall.”.
The result is invisible sewing work, with internal reinforcements and clean finishes that allow, when the piece hits the catwalk, "the only thing that is perceived is the lace speaking loudly.".
