SUMA CRUZ's jewelry shone last night alongside AILANTO's creations at the Cristóbal Balenciaga Museum, as part of the San Sebastián Moda Festival F/W 2025-26. An event that united creativity, sustainability, and craftsmanship around a dialogue between fashion and nature. For the occasion, SUMA CRUZ designed pieces inspired by vines and their fruits that are a part of the SS26 collection, which is scheduled for its official presentation in February. Models wore these unique jewels during the AILANTO fashion show evoking the beauty and voluptuousness of Pompeii through mosaics of plants, fruits, and birds motifs transformed into embroidery, prints, and geometric silhouettes. Each piece is created from a real branch, converted into metal through direct casting. Over a 24-karat yellow gold-plated brass base, the stones—garnet, labradorite, prehnite, and pearls in various hues—recreate the nuances of the vine, reaffirming SUMA CRUZ's commitment to nature, material, and craftsmanship. A meeting that celebrates fashion as living art and jewelry as a memory of the landscape.

During the San Sebastián Fashion Festival F/W 2025-26, the Balenciaga Museum hosted the presentation of “Memory | Time and You,” CLARO Couture's new bridal collection for 2026. The event marked a doubly symbolic moment: the Andalusian fashion brand's debut on this stage as well as collecting the "Aguja de Oro" for its more than forty years of experience. The collection, under the CLARO Bridal label, articulates a dialogue between past and present. Twenty-five white dresses strolled the runway like fragments of a single story: love, time, and couture. Open backs, suspended volumes, and almost invisible closures create a serene, precise, and contemporary silhouette. “We wish to pay our most humble and sincere personal tribute,” mentioned Beatriz Claro, the house's creative director. Each design is an act of memory. Lace, embroidery, and minimal gestures compose a poetic detail that reinterprets tradition from stillness. In the space, transformed into a landscape of light, the color white took over the narrative, and the Balenciaga Museum became the natural setting for this tale of silent beauty. “Memory” leaves a discreet and profound mark: a manifesto of sensitivity, craft, and frozen time. In Guetaria, CLARO Couture has created a memory through its creative medium.  

García Madrid, under the creative direction of Manuel García, presented at Madrid es Moda his Fall-Winter 2025/26 collection in a digital format. The collection unfolds in a visual environment that evokes a reinterpreted 19th-century salon, where tradition and rebellion coexist in a single gesture. Through an online fashion show, a photo shoot, and a fashion film, the fashion brand offers a contemporary and conscious interpretation of classicism. The collection's concept is articulated through a contrasts play: gold with an urban feel, Chinoiserie paintings transformed into delicate graffiti, past and present in dialogue. The inspiration stems from the need to understand fashion as a bridge between form and emotion, between inherited elegance and contemporary freedom. Regarding silhouettes, the collection focuses on structured suits and garments, crafted with fine fabrics and impeccable cuts, but softened with a relaxed and approachable feel. Nature takes center stage in the fashion film, where intense greens, sky blues, and aquatic tones are translated into garments, underlining a commitment to sustainability and responsible production. García Madrid presented a collection that looks towards the future without giving up its classic roots, reclaiming fashion as a constant dialogue with the landscape and the present.

María Lafuente presented her Shakti bridal collection at Madrid es Moda. The show, held on Sunday, September 14th at the Villa Rosa Palace in Hortaleza and open to the public, was designed as a signature fashion manifesto in which exclusivity, craftsmanship, and sustainability intertwine with feminine energy, which is the central theme. Inspired by the notion of shakti as a creative and transformative force, the collection articulates a narrative where the invisible becomes visible through clothing. The designer proposes a tribute to women's inner power, conceived as an authentic and confident presence, not as an ornament. Each piece translates this power into a language that asserts uniqueness as an essential value. The silhouettes unfold organically and fluidly, with fabrics that evoke nature and life: PEFC-certified Tencel, ethereal tulle, lightweight cottons, and artisanal crochet. The palette ranges from warm white to ivory, with nuances of peach and pink illuminated by mother-of-pearl reflections, creating an intimate and timeless atmosphere. The ensemble projects solid delicacy, uniting textile tradition and a contemporary vision. With Shakti, María Lafuente has woven a bridal ritual that becomes a celebration of feminine energy.
