Leandro Cano's Spring 2027 Collection Draws on Andalusian Roots and Buñuel
Leandro Cano's Spring 2027 line, titled Le Chien Andalou, emerged from his dissatisfaction with how often Andalusia is overlooked. He delved into the region's proto-Andalusian heritage and the influences that shaped its musical and cultural identity, celebrating events like Semana Santa and the Feria as ceremonial. The collection draws inspiration from the religious and flamenco traditions, viewed through the surrealist perspective of Luis Buñuel's film, which inspired its name. Cano focused on hyperbole, beauty, and surrealism, embracing these concepts as natural. His sculptural designs featured lighter volumes and conical silhouettes. Fabrics included midnight blue satin, wool, and crepe, complemented by artisan-crafted accessories, such as silver jewelry resembling fangs, and traditional Córdoban hats from Fernández y Roche, enhancing its global appeal.
