Spanish brand Pedro del Hierro presented “The Great Metropolis” for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Madrid inside one of the most emblematic buildings in the Spanish capital: the majestic Palacio Cibeles.
Pedro del Hierro’s latest proposal, ‘The Great Metropolis’, revolved around city nightlife as a reminder that the loudest beats of our hearts happen after dark.

Pedro del Hierro’s elongated silhouettes were an ode to relaxed chic and a modern night life. Gentle degrade prints in warm oranges, burgundy and reds, suggested a welcoming dawn. The magic of the city lights became a leading character of the show through metallics present in hardware, accessories and fabrics that were part of both womenswear and menswear looks.
The women’s collection celebrated city sophistication and enigma: play on see-through fabrics, smooth lines and asymmetric shapes were the ingredients that defined the silhouette of a strong, seductive night power.

On the menswear side, everything was speaking louder: confident and unapologetic, with a relaxed tailoring that reinterpreted summer outerwear. Tuxedos reworked with sequins and shine were a nod to the sensual womenswear line. A message of relaxed luxury, a determined and elegant masculinity, presented itself ready to light up the main avenues of the Great Metropolis.

There wasn’t a single detail in the collection that was an afterthought. Each material, stitch and accessory completed strong looks that told a cohesive story, one that connected to its runway setting. Inside this emblematic building, the show became an immersive dialogue between architecture and fashion, between timelessness and the vertigo of nightlife. A modern collection, yes, but eternal at the same time, and it reminded us of something we sometimes forget: our boldest adventures and our most memorable celebrations take place after the sun goes down.
