Roser Marcé was born with the purpose of dressing the body. For her, fashion is a language, a way of expressing herself through the intimate relationship with the skin, the canvas where emotions are written and it is from there that the Roser Marcé brand emerges. The result of a vital need that reflects her way of being and understanding the world around her. Her garments have the ability to be recognizable through their shapes, patterns, fabrics, threads and stitches.
The concept continues and each idea emerges intuitively, as he observes a gesture, hears the sound of a word or meets a glance. From there, his pencil captures it in the corner of a piece of paper until it becomes a collection.
One of the most important aspects of her career has been connecting and being part of the present, of the society of the moment. For this reason, in the 80’s, she responded to bodies that wanted to get out of themselves, to get rid of ties and add color. She knew what was necessary and chose what was essential and wove the dresses to the skin.
The fashion she creates experiments and writes history, it is a way of communicating and turns garments into amulets. This is what happened with Pascual Maragall’s “gabardine”, an inseparable piece of clothing that gave him confidence and became part of his image at a time of boom achieved through the 1992 Olympic Games. During this period, the cultural scene became dynamic and Roser Marcé was one of the people chosen to represent the city of Barcelona through her designs. Her pieces, inspired by Gaudí and modernism, are authentic works of art.
And the concept continues, because the most important thing about Roser Marcé is the visual dialogue she proposes and invites us to make it our own. She offers us an infinite number of proposals to discover our identity and dress our body freely. When I wear one of her creations I discover who I am, I feel safe and equipped with the resources to go on stage and dance.
