Custo Barcelona: Custo is an obvious but deserved inclusion >
*El Corte Inglés: The mother of all department stores >
Desigual: The most playful of Spanish style >
*Mango: Penelope Cruz and Mango make quite the pair >
Stradivarius: The Spanish Forever 21 >
Zara: Zara is an international chain, but Spain is the homeland >
