Tamara Falcó surrenders in the 'Hormiguero' before the exclusive designer Western Gordon: who he is and why he is so special

Tamara Falcó returned to El Hormiguero this Thursday after a few difficult weeks in which she was left without a wedding dress after her controversy with the Sophie et Voila brand. In a few crazy days, the collaborator has finally found the help of Western Gordon, the creative director of the Carolina Herrera firm.

After many rumors, the marquise confirmed on the set of Pablo Motos what was an open secret: that her wedding dress will be by Carolina Herrera. His lightning trip to New York helped him to carry out a first test with the most important man in the firm, who has extended his hand to do it in record time.

"We already have a dress," she said with a smile on her face when asked. "It has been the most wonderful test. The dresses, the embroideries, the team... Everything was wonderful. I felt super listened to," she commented in a clear dart to the previous team of designers with whom she worked.

She confirmed that in the only 72 hours she spent in the United States, she was able to choose from a selection of dresses that Western Gordon and his team had prepared for her. "He was there, his assistant, who is a Basque girl, the pattern maker, the person in charge of Marketing", a number of people who caught the attention of Juan del Val: "Come on, there were a lot of people".

"At least, I have something to wear on my wedding day. That and that they are charming. They are all good news," Isabel Preysler's daughter said very happily to her program partners. She also confirmed that not all the work is done, as she will have to come back at least three more times to finish all the details and tests.

At 36, the designer has become the professional heir to Carolina Herrera, who decided to reduce her workload to enjoy her family. It was in 2019 when he debuted at the firm, since then becoming the preferred man for numerous celebrities from all over the planet.

Being only a child, he became interested in the world of fashion, so his family decided that he would study at the prestigious Central Saint Martins design school in London. Fashion stars such as Alexander McQueen or Stella McCartney and even Antonio Banderas, who since 2016 has his own fashion firm, were also trained there.

This designer has become the most sought after in Spain thanks to Tamara Falcó, who has not spared compliments to make it clear how wonderful he is. Among his best-known clients are Queen Letizia, the Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton and the Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, Rosalía or Cara Delevingne, among many others.
