Every now and then while scrolling through my photos I come across images of the fittings of the ‘Lost Collection’ at Delpozo – the one that would have officially been my debut show. I am still just a little sad at all the lost potential- It was the perfect situation of a brilliant team and incredible pattern cutters and atelier.. some of the most beautiful and beautifully made pieces I’ve ever seen in my life were made there- such care and love was involved in making these garments.I do hope that somehow one day this gorgeous brand will be resurrected and shine again .. in the meantime here are a few images of what could have been. .. and my sincere and heartfelt thank you goes out to every single person I had the privilege to work with at Delpozo ❤️

After finishing the Pre-Collection for Delpozo there was about one and a half months left to make the Main Collection for FW 2019.. so we decided to make this as a ‘Studio Collection’, without a Fashion Show and without using my name officially. It gave me the possibility to get to know the team, the atelier, put down some bases, and also present my vision of Delpozo to the House : Combining the beautiful dream-like quality that Josep Font had created with a certain sense of everyday life- a dream steeped in reality so to say 🤗So here are a few looks from this ‘ in-between’ collection..Getting this finished in such a short time would never have been possible without the help of the wonderful and enthusiastic and incredibly talented team in both the studio and the atelier ! If this collection worked out it’s because of all of these amazing people ❤️And a special Thank you to Pepe Lobez for the beautiful photos, and the most wonderful and lovely Luz Sanchez Godin whose mother Violeta Sanchez had modeled for Jesus Del Pozo in the 80s .. and whose beauty here still makes my heart flutter.

Here’s a little something I never talked about before – my first-ever work for DELPOZO. The Pre-Fall 2019 had already been started by the team when I arrived, so I took over materials and colours, adding and subtracting, working on shapes and colour combinations.. this was literally finished in weeks, and my first experience with both the team and the atelier, incredible both on a professional as well as human level. This could have been a terribly stressful situation but turned out utterly joyful , thanks to the wonderful team at Delpozo .. We shot the photos with Pepe Lobez in 2 days just before Christmas in Madrid and all left for the Christmas holidays in the highest of spirits.Oh and the photo with the knitted sweater became, against all expectations, the most liked photo ever on the Delpozo Instagram.

“…That’s also why I’m hopeful that things are going to be fine, in any case, because with everything that’s going on, people will react, and are reacting, to make things change. For example, the Everytown for Gun Safety movement in America — the scale of it is totally unprecedented, and yet it’s all been led by very young people. They’re saying, ‘take note, because we won’t vote for you, we’ll vote you out’. Those things didn’t exist five years ago. It will all be fine in the end. I feel hopeful.” Read Lutz in conversation with Rebekka Ayres in the latest issue of ZOO MAGAZINE
