GRAZIE is born as a silent manifesto. In the AW26 collection, CRIS BARROS transforms gratitude into a creative gesture and reaffirms fashion as a continuous construction, where past, present, and future coexist.
Inspired by her years living in Milan, Cris Barros translates references from architecture, interiors, and modern rigor into pieces that value structure, intention, and time. The collection is based on the idea that innovating is not about breaking with the past, but rather building upon it with respect.

The silhouettes approach the body through transparencies, precise cutouts, and controlled volumes, creating a game of reveal and protect. Tailoring emerges in a sensory manner, with visible seams and finishes that expose the reasoning behind each piece.
The maximalist character appears in the dialogue between prints, textures, and patterns. The bow assumes prominence in different scales and materials, while lace, tulle, and textured surfaces expand the visual depth of the collection. Each detail reinforces the notion of fashion as a process, rather than an immediate product.

In GRAZIE, fashion behaves like architecture: designed with intention, built in layers, and thought to last. A gesture of gratitude that looks to the past to project the future.
