In the Studio: Bárbara Sánchez-Kane

A Mexican fashion designer disarms masculinity through menswear. We join Bárbara Sánchez-Kane in Mexico City, following the creation of her next line.

Bárbara Sánchez-Kane is a Mexican fashion designer with eclectic influences - from quinceañera dresses to BDSM harnesses, Jesus's loincloth to lucha libre wrestlers in lingerie. Bárbara revels in the camp and complexity of everyday gender performance. Resisting traditional notions of masculine and feminine, Bárbara creates spaces of tension between these contrasting costumes. We join Bárbara in Mexico City to follow the creation of her next line, from studio sketches to final fittings.
