Before Raúl proposed this series to the New York-based brand Abasi Rosborough we talked about the importance of highlighting modern architecture and aesthetics that carry a significance to Mexican culture that go beyond what is commonly considered traditional or 'Mexican'. I made a selection of spaces that included Torres de Satélite by architect Luis Barragán, Casa Praxis by architect Agustín Hernández, and Monumento a la Madre by artist Luis Ortíz Monasterio.
04. The 'ARC Jacket' from the SS17 collection by Abasi Rosborough.
This series was produced through a whole week in the city. For some of the looks Raúl thought of adding clothes found in mercados around Mexico City: leather huaraches and canvas pants are worn with Abasi Rosborough. María Osado, founder of Guerxs, was in charge of casting.
