The show will open with Barcelona firm Rosa Clará. Raimon Bundó will follow, along with Jesús Peiró, Victorio & Lucchino, Yolan Cris, Inmaculada García and M&M, who will present their collections on day two of the show.

Carla Ruiz with party dresses and Fuetecapala with designs for the groom will add the finishing touch.
Thanks to the presence of the most important brands in the industry, a myriad of combinations of colours, fabrics and accessories are set to flood Pasarela Gaudí Novias, which will once more show that bridal wear “Made in Spain” has reached the highest levels of success on every continent.
