BAILAR EN LA HERIDA

*Bailar en la herida* explores the hidden tension between beauty and pain within classical ballet. The project reflects on discipline, perfection and the way the dancer’s body is shaped by control, repetition and constant observation. Through contrasting structures, delicate fabrics and handcrafted details, the collection translates the duality between rigidity and lightness, strength and vulnerability. Each silhouette reveals a different stage of this emotional journey, exposing the marks left behind by the pursuit of perfection. Rather than romanticising suffering, the project acknowledges the wound and transforms it into movement, creating garments that embody resilience, sensitivity and the quiet power of continuing to dance.
