The Exteberria SS16 collection was delightfully airy and springish. For a designer who almost always uses black and leather, this was an exciting and fresh style set that BDMOTP loved. Seersucker and linen were primary fabrics used, and baggy suits, nightshirts and other draped looks ruled the runways.

Volume was a trend that was also played with. Three shirtless models of three different skin shades (a statement that did not go unnoticed and was well-needed after many shows with all caucasian models) walked the runway with a bubbly shorts fabric that seemed to also have an air of neoprin in it, voluminous and baggy. The geometric patterns and stripes that appeared in the other catwalks of course were represented lightly in the Exteberria line.

Many shades of blue, grey and beige were used in the collection, which again were a fresh breath of air from what Exteberria usually interprets into black, brown or navy. Stripes and layers kept things warm in a cool spring. Both women and men walked the runway, but the menswear is where to true talent of Exteberria lays, which is great news for BDMOTP.
