Alejandro Blanco Designs Clothes to Make You Feel Good

Deirdre Season 1 Episode 8

International fashion designer Alejandro Blanco joins me in the studio to share all about his new found love of vacationing and vibing in Spain, and the chic and extraordinary fashion, food and wine scene there.  Then, he shares about a recent vacation in Tulum with friends, the value of relaxing without any schedules or set plans and how going with the flow while traveling has led to his absolute best adventures and new found friends.  We chat about working together, his style and love of being a designer, his design process, how he learned so much from his fabulously talented mother, and that his greatest fashion inspiration is, and always has been, the one and only Sophia Loren.  Of course, I have to share a little about that time I was lucky enough to meet her AND to eat her spectacular pasta dish that she had just made for the tv show segment.  Incredible! What a cherished memory with such an icon!  Alejandro then shares about designing for 11 years at Guess, designing for Eva Mendez, and all about what's trending now and into the summer.  This episode is packed with more Easter eggs than the new pope's welcome basket!  Let's go!
