In this Spanish‑language interview recorded at Madrid Fashion Week (MBFWM) 2026, Ilyana Mendoza, founder of iFashion Legacy, talks with fashion designer David Moss about his recent and upcoming collections and his use of artificial intelligence in the creative process. Moss describes two collections – “Metamorfosis” (Fall‑Winter 2023) and a preview of his Spring‑Summer line inspired by an imaginary garden, emphasizing volume, recycled fabrics, and a festive, nature‑driven aesthetic. He outlines his diverse clientele (artists, TV shows, weddings, general public) and notes that the new collection has not yet been shown on the runway. The conversation then shifts to AI: Moss uses tools such as Gemini, Nano Banana, ChatGPT, and a collaboration with Model IA to generate social‑media images, assist with sketches, and experiment with 3D models. He reports that AI saves time and costs, but acknowledges potential risks, including loss of control over creative decisions, copyright concerns, and the homogenization of social‑media copy. Moss stresses that he retains final artistic authority – he creates initial drawings or collages, then uses AI to render, recolor, or adjust details, ensuring the brand’s DNA remains intact. He discusses how a clear understanding of his brand’s references and values protects its identity, likening AI to tools like Photoshop or Clo3D. The interview also touches on broader industry impacts: AI‑generated models replace human models and crews, raising job‑displacement worries, while the proliferation of AI‑written copy leads to repetitive online content. Moss adopts a pragmatic stance, viewing AI as an inevitable, hybrid evolution of creativity, while remaining open to changing opinions in the future. The dialogue concludes with mutual appreciation for the exchange and a nod to the mission of Fashion Legacy to preserve human creativity in the age of AI.
