To some, it may seem disadvantageous for a boutique to be located down a narrow, desolate alleyway. Yet the luck and improvisation needed to find Lobby taps right into the shop’s inspired vibe.

The unique space houses pieces from greats ranging from Pleats Please by Issey Miyake to out-of-the-ordinary Syngman Cucala. Beyond rags, along the lines of Corso Como and Colette, they also stock select beauty products, toys, design books and furniture. Don’t let the small alley location fool you (or your purse strings), this is one creative designer shop.

  • Behind The Scenes

    Following a slew of designer documentaries, has fashion lost its mystery?

  • No Circus - Impressions from The Brandery

    If you don’t know its predecessor, then the new brand showcase and trade fair might leave you impressed – pretty, slick and, for being Spain, reasonably well organised.

  • Photos: Dress For Success

    Local furniture maker Concepta Barcelona pulled out all stops at MACBA on Tuesday night for the presentation of the latest batch of artists invited to its Dress For Success project, in which the artists add a twist of their own to Concepta’s pieces.

  • Wear & Dispose

    Priced to make Zara and H&M look exorbitantly expensive and faster, and even less scrupulous, than Inditex at copying fashion designs, it's been a runaway (and throwaway) success everywhere it's opened.

  • Sample Sized

    With the opening of Alex Estilles and Xavi Lanau's brainchild, those delectable fashion samples will now be put on sale to the public. And naturally, being set up by PRs, everything in the shop is for sale.
