¿QUÉ ES POESÍA?
_

“¿Qué es poesía? dices mientras clavas en mi pupila tu pupila azul. ¿Qué es poesía? ¿Y tú me lo preguntas? Poesía… eres tú”. Gustavo A dolfo Bécquer. Gustavo A dolfo Bécquer (1836 – 1870) was a Spanish post-romanticist poet and writer (mostly short s tories), also a playwright, literary columnist, and talented in drawing. Today he is considered one of the most important figures in Spanish literature. Today @JosepFontc is considered (by me) one of the most important figures in Spanish fashion. His #ss18 sophisticated the autentica emoción of exotic travel. From Cartagena to Conakry. @Delpozo was an Afro-Latino ode breezing the Caribbean and Latin America suave coming out from #JosepFont creative call to harness voices in #Africa and #LatinAmerica. #DelpozoSS18 was about giving these voices an opportunity to converse, charm, seduce, agree, and share fashions on the craft of style, on life, on being and on dressing for the benefit of bon ton. It was also an opportunity to create friendship and farniente between these two great regions. Because, Latin America and Africa still have a lot of s tories to share among themselves and with the rest of the world. On runways too. I reminisced of @StellaJeanLTD’s all africanism as well as RIP @OscardelaRenta’s erie elegancia. Both color, full. There are still very strong untapped fashion s torytelling traditions in these continents. S tories that #Delpozo reminded us today in an anthology on experimentation delicacy in every pure lines of Mr. Font’s designs where he keeps approaching the traditional poetry of fashion themes in a modern way. Contemporáneo nostálgico, de gus to. Fashion can be poetry.
