TWLV Questions with Brand Designer Beatriz Behind Flabelus
A mix of Fashion, Beauty, Lifestyle & more!
1. Your go-to outfit formula? For me, it’s about a dress that’s elegant yet comfortable. Something fluid, that lets you move freely, but still has that chic touch. And, of course, a pair of Flabelus to add the special finishing touch.
2. One color you can’t resist? Blue. It’s been my favorite color since I was little. It encourages me to dream, inspires me, reminds me of the sea, and looks good on everyone.
3. Your definition of self-care? For me, it’s about finding a good balance. It’s about feeling good, both inside and out.
4. What’s always in your carry-on? A pair of Flabelus, my laptop, and my toiletry bag. Flabelus are perfect for traveling because they’re both comfortable and elegant, the laptop is for work, and the toiletry bag is essential.
5. Silk pajamas or oversized tee? Silk pajamas, no doubt about it.
6. The ultimate shopping city? Paris. It’s the perfect place for everything, from haute couture to finding little vintage treasures.
7. Where do you find inspiration? What inspires me the most are stories told by their protagonists. They have the power to take me to other worlds and connect me with new ideas.
8. How do you name your collections? I like to give them the names of literary characters. Each one has a story, a unique personality, and I feel that each collection comes to life by carrying its name.
9. One detail that always makes its way into your designs? Comfort, despite being sophisticated. I love using soft, pleasant-to-the-touch materials, and I always aim for the pieces to make whoever wears them feel amazing.
10. What’s a fashion rule you love breaking? That only high heels are appropriate for formal occasions. Flabelus prove that a flat shoe can also be super elegant and sophisticated.
11. How would you describe your aesthetic in three words? Timeless, sophisticated, and comfortable.
12. What’s next for you? A future without limits! We aim to lead this company to become one of the major global players. I want to position Spanish fashion much better and be a flagship brand, although there’s still a lot of work ahead.
