My costume design pays tribute to the female experience, creating a playful bridge between the Spanish Golden Age and the present. I combined period silhouettes and fabrics with contemporary references to define each protagonist and support the production’s humor. Through evolving cuts, textures, and color palettes, I sought to reflect women’s enduring struggle for the freedom to choose their own destinies.
