The SS26 collection by Beatrice .b takes shape around the concept of layering, understood as both an aesthetic and existential principle. A visual and material narrative that emerges from the intersection of distant visual and cultural codes—organic suggestions and chromatic tensions—overlapping and enhancing each other in a bold and dynamic equilibrium. A continuous dialogue between spontaneity and precision, sensorial exuberance and design discipline, celebrating a conscious plurality.
The inspirations flow between two universes.
The first is instinctive and fluid, driven by a free and irregular dimension. Inspired by marine atmospheres, submerged landscapes, and organic, natural structures. The garments are light, dynamic, almost suspended: macro lace like nets tracing the body, with lightness becoming a statement of vitality. It’s a free, irregular aesthetic deeply connected to the energy of nature.
In contrast, an urban and constructed aesthetic defines the other axis of the collection. Urban not in a geographical sense, but in its intentional, architectural spirit. Silhouettes are born from rigorous pattern-making research, volumes are designed with architectural clarity, and fabrics introduce a sense of structure and three-dimensionality. Each piece is the result of a precise compositional thought, a sartorial construction that blends experimentation with Italian know- how, expressing a vision that is warm, never sterile—always expressive.
The idea of layering and the encounter of multiple worlds comes to life through the fabrics: three-dimensional mesh, technical juxtapositions of contrasting materials such as sangallo and organza, macro workmanship applied to natural bases with trompe-l’œil effects. The meeting of distant worlds creates new and unexpected harmonies.
Color, a distinctive trait of Beatrice .b, is inspired by the cinematic theory of the three colors, orchestrating bold and sometimes dissonant combinations that generate coherent visual tensions. The palette becomes a narrative tool—a bridge between emotion and technique. Once again, color research confirms itself as one of the collection’s most radical and recognizable elements.
Beatrice .b is contamination, freedom, craftsmanship, and vision. A collection that doesn’t seek uniformity, but finds in multiplicity its most authentic language of expression. Layering as a method. Contrast as a creative impulse. Fashion as an open space of possibility.
