Cesar Galindo continues to take the fashion industry by storm with his architectural, and powerful designs. His career as a visionary and highly sought-after A-list designer, stylist, and entrepreneur is a tale of impassioned creativity, gritty persistence, and an uncanny flair for beautifully breaking new ground while staying true to the roots of his highly respected creative wisdom.
His eponymous brand and reputation as a brilliant go-to contract designer, draper, and pattern maker are known worldwide. His rare talent for creating paradigm-shifting designs has shaped iconic brands, including Dolce & Gabbana and Calvin Klein.
He is no stranger to MoDA, and keeps dazzling us with his humble and charming personality, his beautiful work and craftsmanship, and his tales of dressing the rich and the famous. Here’s what he has to say about working with Diane Von Furstenberg and a snippet into his creative mind...
‘‘I am known as a master Draper in my industry, TEXTILES are my paints...and the human form the canvas, every season starts with the curation of the textiles, and this is how my story unfolds. Travel is an important part of my life experience, seeing and submersing into global cultures always inspires me as a creative."
Working with Diane Von Furstenberg, getting to know her and gaining her trust has been a gift. She has always been an inspiration to me as a designer and a global icon in our industries culture with her quick and sharp eye. We have a very special simpatico. Her birthday is December 31st born right before the New Year and my birthday is Jan 1st right after. Three MET GALAS and countless commissions for her and her customers is on going. I love the moments with her because I know they are special. DVF is a legendary icon of greatness.
To reach where I am now, balance has been a practiced skill, knowing how and where to push the envelope to create designs that are unique but still have commercial appeal. MODERN COLLECTABLES are my end goals, if my client tells me she still has the pieces and won’t ever get rid of them then I am achieving my goal. I am not a brand of excessive manufacturing. I feel that is out of style, we as creators have to do better for earth; lower our carbon footprint and have a conciseness of what we create and what we leave behind.
If I had one thing to say to young designers it would be to study and practice your craft.
Love your passion.
Stay grounded.
Focus on your customers.
...and repeat all the above.
Who is my focus? She is a mover and a shaker, Alpha Style maker; the one who naturally commands attention when entering a room.
