Javier Rey

Just saw mention of this on JR's Instagram -- last week, he and Charlotte Vega (Lucia) started shooting a new project called Lo que escondían sus ojos, which (as best as I can tell from Google Translate) looks like it's a period piece focusing on the affair between Franco's brother-in-law and the wife of the Marquis of Llanzol.

What's cool is that JR is playing Cristóbal Balenciaga, the Spanish fashion designer, who was actually designing around the time Velvet is set (though he would have been older than Raul/Ana at the time). If you visit this page, you can see that some of his designs appear similar to some of the dresses we've seen on the show:

I'm intrigued.
