After 12 years of showing in Paris, Esteban Cortazar returns to New York Fashion Week.

The designer based the collection as a collage of ideas, likening it to salsa.

For the 10th anniversary of his Paris debut, Esteban Cortazar took a trip down memory lane, combining house codes in quirky new silhouettes.

The designer described the collection as a superpersonal kaleidoscope of ideas.

The collection’s suave side came in a series of softly undulating dresses, worn over translucent mesh tops delicately hugging the body.

Looking to do something brave and bold, Esteban Cortazar filled his runway with high-energy clubbers wearing edgy looks.

The leather fringe laced tightly up the back of a tunic like a spine, then fell free at the tailbone, cascading into a curtain of fringe that lapped at the models’ heels.

For his debut on the Paris runway, wunderkind Esteban Cortazar did not disappoint.
