My foray into the world of fashion leads me to dream places, such as the home of Frank Sinatra in Palm Springs, California, which immerses us in the golden age of cinema, this year’s theme for Metropolitan Fashion Week. Collaborating with a great visionary designer like Douglas Tapia has developed a unique relationship.Me as a visual artist and him who once again dedicates his career, his vision of fashion for over 20 years in this fashion industry. I hope to continue supporting him in future projects. It’s a world that’s really unknown to me, but everything I’ve always tried to do has been. So go! I enjoy every moment

@metropolitanfashionweek PALM SPRINGS Frank Sinatra's mansion was the ideal setting for this Resort collection. This Wayuu Manta, or Wayushein, is the traditional dress of Wayuu women, worn from colonization to the present day. Its unique character immerses and distinguishes them as the most important ethnic group between Venezuela and Colombia. This transcultural process allows me to go beyond a simple caftan; it highlights femininity with simple ties, providing comfort and a flattering silhouette through a square pattern. This serves as a canvas for my friends, the most emblematic artists, creating art in fashion. This is how this dress became the Palm Springs Girl, a work inspired by the artist @ge_labarca, who blurred the DNA of glamour and aesthetics in this piece. In this way, the global vision of fashion is sealed, where cultural fusion is key.

Here is a glimpse of the fashion show at Metropolitan Fashion Week in Palm Springs, held in the beautiful Frank Sinatra house. My paintings shone through the stunning dresses by Douglas Tapia. It is a great privilege for me to continue collaborating with this great figure in the fashion world. #Mode #fashion #palmspringsstyle #art #gerardolabarca

Cuando recibí la invitación de Douglas Tapia, de collaborar con el con mi arte, jamás imaginé la magnitud que alcanzaría mi obra “La Chinita de Labarca”. Douglas, diseñador visionario, lleva su arte más allá de lo común. Clara Vega, Miss Venezuela 2026, luce imponente con su línea “vestida de Redención”. ¡Orgullo total! #missvenezuela #missuniverso @claravegasgoetz
