Pronovias, en el Princesa Sofía
I met Cristina just as she was leaving the elevator at the Princesa Sofía Hotel in Barcelona, and right then, I knew I was ready for the weekend. My heart was pounding with excitement; I had been anticipating an experience like this since I was 16.
There were two suites full of dresses, a list of the celebrities and influencers attending the catwalk and a team of approximately 10 tailors. Time was crucial and there were many problems to be solved along the way.
Watching her interact with the clients, work with the Pronovias team and collaborate hand in hand with the tailors was more than enough to see all the concepts I had learned in the Condé Nast course in action.
25 años con Isabel Presley
20 de Abril de 2024
¡Qué bien lo pasé este día! Lo conservo como algo muy preciado porque fue mi primer día como asistente oficial de Cristina Reyes.
My very first day as an assistant, and it was so much fun. I completely forgot the world existed. My brain was absorbing every single detail. The studio was filled with clothes, everything carefully selected and organized. The pieces were from brands I had been following for years and whose passion I truly admire: creations by world-renowned designers from all around the globe, but also from Spain, which makes me proud to say that we have incredible artisans and geniuses here. Bleis was the suit with the vest that Isabel selected, along with the dresses from Armani Privé. I love this picture. I will always keep it as something very special.
Besides that, the way Isabel took care of the team was truly special, even bringing a delicious plum cake for everyone.
El Vestidor Podcast
13 de mayo de 2024
This was so well produced and beautifully organized. The podcast team from Barcelona traveled to Madrid, and we brought all the suitcases while I hung every look in order. The looks Cristina wore during each interview were selected by her, but I made sure everything looked perfect. I also helped Astrid Klisans find the right look.
Around these days I had the inmense privilege to learn about the craftmanship and the science behind jewelry.
We went into the guest room of this beautiful house and organized all the clothes by category, along with the sunglasses and shoes. The team brought all the cameras and umbrellas, just like in a movie. The silence during the recording was incredible. I had to stay attentive in case they needed another pair of shoes or anything else that might come up.
Sisley Comercial
It was such a joy to meet so many people from the team as well — photographers, makeup artists, PR, and marketing professionals. The production team organized everything so well that we were able to eat, enjoy, and work comfortably.But, as always, there was also a small setback: a miscommunication about the start time meant we had to wait for about two hours. This is all part of learning by doing. In moments like these, you realize how important every single detail of the schedule and mood board is.It was an amazing experience. I enjoyed every minute and learned so much that day.Adolfo Domínguez skirt and Zara T-shirt.
Hola! Living
Cristina opened the doors of her incredible attic apartment in Madrid to Hola Magazine. I ironed the garments and helped organize the closet hand in hand with José, the best assistant I could have ever worked with. From time to time, I had to step into the shoot to adjust garments, pillows, and other details.I learned that, although it’s important to be friendly with the team, it is also crucial to remain focused until the very end, even when people are curious to get to know you because you are the newest person there. Especially as an assistant, you are almost invisible — no offense intended — since the stylist is usually the main focus.It was an amazing day. I also had to hold the shooting umbrella despite the wind ;) The pictures turned out so beautiful, and Cristina shines with her smile. Muchísimas gracias.
Premios Telva: iconos de los 90
Inés Sastre attended the Premios T de Telva Moda 2024, celebrated on the night of 16 October 2024 at Florida Park. Some of the most iconic Spanish supermodels — Judith Mascó, Laura Ponte, and Nieves Álvarez — were honored with an award for helping make the 90s such an unforgettable era in fashion.Cristina told me which dresses I had to pick up from different showrooms and organize into the suitcases, along with the clutches and shoes, including an amazing pair from Aquazzura. The jewelry was something she wanted to take care of herself. We also selected the look for El Hormiguero, the TV show with one of the largest audiences in Spain.This velvet dress was by Hervé Léger, and the El Hormiguero look was by Max Mara with Sportmax shoes. The teamwork between the seamstress, the model, and the stylist was incredibly effective. The seamstress had to adjust the dress and let more fabric out because it was too tight. We also had to pay close attention to the shoes and the length of the dress to avoid her falling while walking or going up and down the stairs.It was definitely a masterclass.
In this picture from Telva digital magazine, she shines with her smile and looks amazing. The dress, with its halter neck and cut-out neckline, is daring, yet still elegant.
That same day, Cristina selected the best look for Inés for the TV show El Hormiguero, where she was invited to speak about her journey as an iconic model of the 90s. The shoes were by Sportmax, and the suit was from Max Mara.
