What happens when denim is taken out of place?
In Fuera de Lugar, Alonso Leyva reimagines the suit as an instrument of presence: an amplified silhouette shaped by 1940s tailoring, the Zoot Suit, Latin American culture and streetwear.
Total white denim becomes a surface to read at close range. Thousands of micro-abrasions, created through a deliberately altered sewing needle, disrupt the weave and build an irregular, three-dimensional texture. Structural folds and patterns inspired by traditional Peruvian weaving further transform the fabric, while preserving its unmistakable identity.
Here, imperfection is intentional. The gesture remains visible. And denim becomes a living archive of construction, culture and personal experience.
