He was often seated beside them during their work, which sparked his interest grew about fashion and has a penetrating eye for elegance. This in my opinion was the main reason why the Marchioness de Casa Torres send the petition to Madrid when he was at the age of just 12 years, to receive formal training in the art of sewing and working as an apprentice in many tailors prominent in both Madrid and San Sebastian, where he achieved success quickly to enjoy the Prime tailors women's center.

It was the first to introduce the barrel and dresses which had the appearance of a barrel, plus a position around the waist and harassment of the tail.
