For the Spring-Summer 2013, Agatha designed a collection that revisits her classic forms and shapes: hoops, ladders, michelins, pianos, self-portraits, mirrors, cages, baby walkers, trays, tangles, roosters, etc...
"Michelin (a Spanish word for love handles), one of my obsessions.
The Michelin company wrote me once complaining about my using their company name for my dresses. I never meant to use their name for comercial reasons. It is very difficult to sell 'michelins' (love handles) in a socity obsessed with being/looking thin." — Agatha —
