Cris Barros presents Valentines, final chapter of the AW26 collection

Cris Barros arrives at "Valentines", the final chapter of the AW26 collection, named "Grazie": a manifesto of gratitude and construction that sums up the season. Milan brought nothing from outside for the designer; it worked as a tuning of what already existed within her: intuition, process, expression and observation.

The interiors of Renzo Mongiardino, the modern rigor of Gio Ponti and the effervescence of the Salone enter the collection as theatrical settings, environments that welcome more than they decorate. For Cris, to innovate is to build with respect for what already exists: the mind translates the soul of spaces and keeps in memory the essence of what has yet to be born.

The result is a collection that bets on the essential: a balance between the simple and the sophisticated, between yesterday and now.
