Custo Barcelona

Custo Barcelona was created in the early 1980's by the Dalmau brothers, Custo and David, upon an extensive motorcycle trip that took them around the world.  Throughout their journey they discovered not only new landscapes but also the most diverse manifestations of art, culture and philosophy.  One of the most surprising things they encountered was the Californian lifestyle, expressed in the look of the surfers living in the southern part of the state, as well as the traditional psychodelia in the north.   They were also impressed by the colourful and innovative fashion they found there, and in particular a style of t-shirt that did not exist in Spain at the time.  Using this as their point of departure, the Custo Barcelona clothing brand was launched.   The Dalmau brothers set to work learning all they could about the techniques of screen printing and it's finishings, although particular attention was given to the area of graphic design.  Custo Barcelona continued to evolve it's designs for their apparel and increased the quality of it's production.

Signature Custo Barcelona knits and t-shirts are screen printed in bright colours with unique illustrations and intricate details such as embroidery, foil and metal graphics.  Exquisitely designed men's and women's dresses, tanks and blouses fill the fashion collection and the brothers continue to expand their horizons with handbags and denim.  The exclusive Custo Barcelona line is available all over the world with a particularly strong presence in Europe, USA and Australia.
