Madrid (EFE) .- The Andalusian artist Melody lIt will use a “vibrant, sophisticated and full of symbolism” design, signed by the Alicante designer Gustavo Adolfo Tarínext May 17 on stage St.ya Jakobshalle de Basilea (Switzerland), to interpret ‘that diva’ during the Eurovision Festival 2025.
It is a custom design, “a vibrant proposal, sophisticated and full of symbolism that encapsulate not only the message of the song, but also Melody’s personality,” designer Gustavo Adolfo Tarí, a native of Torrellano, Elche, Elche, said Monday.
“Designing for Melody is an honor, first for its human quality, then for the great artist who is and, finally, because of the connection that flows with her, which fills me with inspiration. It is the reflection of a woman I admire: fighter, working mother and with great talent,” Tarí said. “It is a luxury to participate in such a project, since it is a very important event that you are still and you dream of doing it,” added the creator, who has dressed celebrities such as Shakira, Rosalía, Tini, Nathy Peluso, Bad Gyal or Karol G.
Although certain details are still secret to preserve the surprise factor, among the materials used, very personal resources of the designer stand out, where crafts occupies a central place.
“The costume is inspired by something very ours and the diva we have in mind, but taken to a higher level,” says the creator, who says he can’t count much, “but it is full of crafts, which is my forte.”
The design reflects the spirit of the song, a clear and powerful message that has guided the entire creative process: “It is a hymn that fills my minds of referents of a current woman, which will be reflected in the costumes.”
The Alicante Tarí grew between threads, fabrics and patterns, influenced from a very young age by the passion and trade of his mother dressmaker. It was in that family environment where he discovered his fascination with fashion, sewing his first school costumes with a mixture of innate intuition and creativity.
Initially, Gustavo focused on the prêt-à-porter, participating in parades that were carried out in independent circuits and exhibiting their creations in museums.
After acquiring experience in spectacle tailors, he decided to completely devote himself to developing his own collections and specific orders. Now, their collections are marked by an aesthetic that pays tribute to the 60s.
