Here's How Esteban Cortazar Would Dress Meghan Markle
Cortazar was the youngest designer to show at New York Fashion Week.
Since starting his company in 2014, Esteban Cortázar has developed a devoted following of women drawn to his sensual, colorful, bodycon style (not surprising for a designer who dressed Beyoncé when he was only 18).
Versions of the 33-year-old's signature piece, the stretch jersey "Salsa Dress" that flares out at the hem, have been seen in the past year on celebrities and influencers around the globe, such as First Lady Melania Trump and documentary producer Marley Clements in Washington, Natalie Joos, Hannah Bronfman, and Astrid Munoz in New York, Tracee Ellis Ross in Los Angeles, Pia Cohler and photographer Jamie Beck in France, television host Angela Saiz in Spain, and Marion Caunter in Singapore.
It's also popular in San Francisco, where this week the Paris-based designer presented his collection at a lunch hosted by stylist Mary Gonsalves Kinney at Julie and Sébastien Lépinard's ultra-hip gallery, 836M. We chatted with Esteban and touched on a variety of topics, including his thoughts on Meghan Markle's style, his childhood in Miami, and what he's working on right now. Here are some highlights.
