Adolfo Dominguez 

Perhaps Spain's most financially established designer, or at least the fact that much of this website is dedicated to investor relations suggests that. A mite stolid, even for my over-conservative tastes. Shops everywhere in Spain and abroad, from Miami to Düsseldorf.

Ágatha Ruiz de la Prada 

Relentless self-publicist with an immediately recognisable style - bright colours and childish (as in "badly drawn") designs - which she has never changed. Some people find it fresh, modern and fun, I think it's a leg-pull.

The hautest of Spain's haute couturists, so haute he doesn't even have an outlet in Spain. Couldn't leave him off this page, though.

Lois Jeans 

International brand of leisurewear, one of those names deliberately chosen (I imagine) not to sound Spanish. Lois has recently opened stores in Madrid and Barcelona and is said to have plans for one for Paris.

Victorio & Lucchino 

Perhaps the most emblematic name in Spanish fashion design, certainly in the top-of-the-range segment, the Victorio and Lucchino partnership is inextricably linked to Andalusia and especially Seville, though there are Victorio & Lucchino stores in Madrid and Marbella and outlets in certain El Corte Inglés stores elsewhere in Spain. At their Seville shop in Calle Sierpes, it is not uncommon for queues to form simply to gape at the shop window, and young ladies nudge each other daring themselves to go in and ask the price of something.
