The designer dies at 46 after facing cancer

GAYLES.TV.- The Spanish designer David Delfín has died a victim of cancer at 46 in Madrid. Diego David Domínguez González (Ronda, 1970) was considered the «enfant terrible» of the fashion in Spain for his transgressive proposals on the catwalk. In January 2016, they detected three brain tumors that separated him from the industry and public life.

In 2001 created together Diego, Gorka and Debroah Postigo the brand davidelfín. Bimba Bose was his muse: the brand ambassador and his inseparable companion. Undoubtedly both grew up together and became great for each other.

His debut in Cibeles in 2002 he was charged with controversy for parading the models with a rope around their neck and their heads covered. Since then, he has not stopped surprising with his staging and with his minimal and revolutionary style that earned him the National Design Award last year.

I sit with Desire to fight, makes me. It's serious, I'm aware. And I know it's a real fight, it's 3 grade tumors that they just want to keep going ... but we have to stop them. "

His partner, the photographer Pablo Sáez, posted a video just a few days ago on his account Instagram titled «Ñoñerías on Sunday»In which they shared caresses.

He has also had the support of his friends, among whom are Alaska, Mario Vaquerizo, Brothers Postigo, Topacio Fresh, Bibiana Fernández, Pepón Nieto, María Escoté, Hiba Abouk, Paco León, Núria Roca and ex Pelayo, among others.

Bimba's death last January also from cancer was one of the hardest moments of his life and his last public appearance. After the death of his muse, David Delfín covered the streets of Madrid with a photograph of her friend made by Gorka Postigo which was the image of the brand's first campaign. He put a T-shirt with that photo on sale and allocated the entire proceeds for the Spanish Association Against Cancer.
