Those in the know about ABRA understand that the Spanish designer is in a class entirely to himself. Contributing essential designs to the likes of Jacquemus, Givenchy, and Kenzo before breaking out with his own label for SS20, his eye for shoes and accessories boggles the imagination; an aesthetic playground that evokes Barbie and a leather dominatrix in equal measure.

But even ABRA's most diehard fans won't be familiar with some of the details that emerged when we paid him a visit at his Paris studio. In loving homage to Vogue, we fired off 69 questions for ABRA to dive into. The results are insightful and, often, hilarious. Watch our full visit above to find out about his inspirations, his love for Hello Kitty, and why it's “kitten heels, always.”
