Spanish clothing label Desigual has teamed up with the incredible Cirque du Soleil for a new collection inspired by the performing troupe. For Desigual, known for its use of flamboyant prints, colours and materials, this couldn’t be a better match, because, lets face it, both are a bit bonkers.

To celebrate the collection, Desigual has gathered bloggers from all over Europe to help them choose worthy winners of a competition. All you need to do is go to the Desigual x Cirque du Soleil page, pick your favourite item of the collection (or as many as you want), write a small blogpost explaining why, and then we will choose our favourite posts. My favourite post will be featured on my blog, and you could win £200 to spend at Desigual. And just for entering you get a 20% discount on the collection too… not too bad, right?

Below are some of my favourite pieces of the collection, which is divided in 3 parts: Troupe, Human Expressions and Costumes. You have until Feb. 10 to enter here! Good luck!




By pure coincidence I went to see Cirque du Soleil’s Totem at the Royal Albert Hall last week and took some cheeky snaps. It’s the second time I’ve seen this particular show, and I was still left gobsmacked. If you ever have the opportunity to catch a Cirque show, please do, it’s worth every penny. As you can tell, they love colour and prints every bit as much as Desigual (if not more!), so this is a match made in heaven!
