This collection channels colonial elegance through white textured cottons, corseted silhouettes, and hand-stitched detail, using restraint and structure to reflect lives shaped by inherited power. Inspired by Cecilia Valdés, the iconic Cuban novel by Cirilo Villaverde first published in 1839, a story set in nineteenth-century colonial Havana. The novel follows Cecilia, a beautiful mixed-race woman whose life becomes entangled in rigid racial and social hierarchies, and whose tragic romance with a white aristocrat unaware of their shared bloodline exposes the cruelty beneath colonial privilege.

Selected pieces from this collection are available upon request.
