The Great Firms DEVOTA&LOMBA and Claudina Mata continue their idyll with the Camariñas Lace Exhibition 

DEVOTA&LOMBA and Claudina Mata, two of the Great Brands who regularly attend the Camariñas Lace Show, continue their romance with the event and will take their designs to the A Coruña Provincial Council catwalk. 

As Modesto Lomba, of DEVOTA&LOMBA, explains, “for us, who start from our minimalist essence and craftsmanship, integrating the delicacy of lace is a challenge to achieve excellence, and we will also try to show creativity.” In the collection for this thirty-fifth edition “we will integrate lace with hats where we will link traditions and avant-garde.”

For her part, Claudina Mata states that being part of the XXXV Camariñas Lace Fair “is a real honor and also a great responsibility. It is an event with a lot of history that values a unique craftsmanship and being able to grow as a designer within this environment is something very special. This year I present a collection in which I continue to explore femininity from a current point of view, combining careful silhouettes with very prominent handcrafted details.”

The Granada native states that “lace is not only a complement, it is the common thread throughout the collection and I wanted to play with the contrasts between delicacy and structure, trying to achieve a balance between tradition and trend.”

“Granada has a very marked light, sensitivity and aesthetic strength, and this is always present in my way of designing. I like to convey that essence through the colors, shapes and attitude in the garments. By combining it with the lace from Camariñas, what I try to do is create a dialogue between two cultures: the warmth and expressiveness of Andalusia with the delicacy and precision of the Galician tradition. I think that this mixture greatly enriches the result”, highlights Mata, who has a message for the public: “You cannot miss my show, because it will be a very careful collection, made from respect and tradition but with a very current perspective. It is an opportunity to see how such a special craft can continue to grow, evolve and excite.”
