Vitamia / Istán and Me Part 1

Ever since the day he was born, from the moment I first saw him, I knew he was special.


Now that he has become a majestic adult, every aspect of Istán inspires me in one way or another.


His nobility reminds me to always hold my head high.
The trust he places in me makes me feel responsible for both his life and my own, a silent promise to always strive for the best.

His midnight black coat that shimmers under the light, brings back my childhood dreams where I imagined myself riding one of these regal companions.

And while black is always a safe bet in fashion as it conveys elegance, sobriety and respect, it is also a language of confidence, speaking softly yet leaving a lasting impression.

His character and elegance are a statement, a declaration of how to live, a way of being.
Istán’s ability to work hard with his relentless spirit is like a spark that starts the engine within me, propelling me forward each day. His attitude lifts my mood and powers the devotion I bring to every project I take on.

And yet, his understanding seems to caress my soul as he speaks to me with his eyes and follows my voice everywhere.
His company brings peace to my spirit and never fails to ease my soul when I am in need.

I have never been so attached to a horse after owning so many throughout my life but there truly is none like Istán!

Aldebaran is Istán. It is a way of life, an attitude towards living.

It is strength, justice and temperance in the face of life’s challenges.


It is the wisdom that we have to face them.


My designs are a statement of our intent to the world and also your introduction to the world as they reflect the inner charisma of one’s spirit. It is what others sees on the outside as they form lasting first impressions.


Aldebaran is the light of my Andalusia, it is the warmth of its sunset and the cool of its morning, the rhythm and dance of its culture, the historical heritage and taste of everyday life in our homes.

Aldebaran is to fashion what Istán is to horses – elegance born of training, discipline and effort.
