Jaime Álvarez has won the L'Oréal Paris Award for Best Collection on his debut at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Madrid with his brand Mans Concept.

The collection that secured Mans Concept’s victory was the catwalk presentation of its first womenswear collection (Spring–Summer 2024).

A collection marking his debut in womenswear, featuring tailored pieces that reinterpret the classic codes of the genre whilst maintaining the brand’s essence. Highlights include oversized blazers, which contrast with pieces such as slim-fit trousers that elongate the feminine silhouette.
