On April 23, Casa Cruylles de Begur hosted a fashion event that captured international attention. The collaboration between Victoria Beckham and Mango is on display at this estate overlooking Iguablava, designed by Anthony Bonet in the 1960s.
Victoria Beckham, accompanied by Mango CEO Tony Ruiz, were the day's hosts. Beckham, although still recovering from injury, did not lose his elegance or energy, as he wore a flawless white suit tailored with his signature that reflected the connection between his aesthetic vision and Mango's identity.
The event began with a welcome cocktail where guests could enjoy small delicacies, followed by dinner prepared by the famous Torres brothers.
Among those in attendance were the likes of Emily Ratajkowski, Alexa Chung, and Adwoa Aboah, accompanied by an impressive roster of so-called mango girls like Gala Gonzalez and Blanca Miro. Guests were able to enjoy the new capsule collection inspired by the movie “The Pool”, a tribute to 70s style with a touch of modern sophistication.
The collection features clean lines, the use of linen as the star material, and perfect lace that promises to be as timeless as it is versatile. Sheath dresses, knitwear and a selection of accessories completed this show that will undoubtedly be the first and the next in the world of contemporary fashion.
The event was not just a fashion show, but also a showcase of Mango's ability to fuse the art of fashion with historic architecture, creating a unique experience that went beyond the typical product launch. Begur, with its natural and architectural beauty, provided the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable evening.
An architectural gem on the Costa Brava
Casa Cruylles, built in the 1960s by Antoni Bonet y Castellana, is a true symbol of modern Catalan architecture. Located among the cliffs of Iguablava, its white walls and unusual shapes attract the attention of any observer.
Evoking the Bauhaus style, this residence has a distinct uniqueness thanks to Bonnet's innovations. Curved ceilings and arches decorated with large stained glass windows give the structure a unique character, allowing abundant natural light. Sliding glass doors on the first floor connect the living room and dining room with a terrace, where you can enjoy stunning views of the Mediterranean Sea.
Controversy and innovation in construction
The house's location at the foot of the mountain was a controversial decision that Bonnett defended to the owners themselves. This choice turned out to be successful, giving the property greater stability, better lighting, and more functionality.
Thanks to these characteristics and its history, the Cruylles House is known not only as an architectural icon, but also as a meeting point for exclusive events and lovers of contemporary architecture.
