Black isn’t just a color for ACROMATYX—it’s a language. In their latest collection, ESENCIA, the Spanish brand digs deep into the cultural weight of black, transforming it into something that feels both ancient and modern.
This is fashion rooted in Extremadura’s craft traditions, yet twisted into new shapes. The collection takes inspiration from the region’s intricate floral embroidery, but distorts it—stretching traditional motifs into abstract, contemporary patterns. Silhouettes play with contrast: sleek, tailored lines collide with exaggerated volumes, creating tension between precision and rebellion.
Texture tells the story here. Glossy satin shines against matte wool; rugged denim gets interrupted by metallic flashes. Each fabric choice feels deliberate—a nod to Spain’s rich textile history pushed forward with modern techniques. Even the material list includes an intriguing surprise: “gravity” appears alongside cold wool and synthetic fur, suggesting an almost physical weight to these designs.
What makes ESENCIA exciting is its refusal to choose between past and future. Pinstripes recall early 20th-century formality, while deconstructed layers and oversized proportions scream now. It’s a collection built on duality—solemn yet daring, traditional yet disruptive.
