The BLACKNOIR collection immerses itself in the deep elegance of the color black, exploring its nuances and its ability to evoke mystery and sophistication. It is inspired by the bold research of contemporary art master Pierre Soulages, who carried out a radical exploration of black as a source of light.

In BLACKNOIR, black manifests in multiple forms: sometimes absolute, other times hinted at in details and embroidery that contrast with natural tones. It traces lines that float over bare fabrics, geometric spirals in relief, or pleated ruffs that resemble volants. Far from being an absence, this color becomes an infinite presence, playing with light and shadow, and combining the opaque intensity of the matte finish with the luminosity of the lacquered shine. Neutral backgrounds are illuminated with touches of twilight orange, vain green, or fire red, creating a universe of sensuality and contemporary sophistication.

The silhouette appears sculptural, with bodies breaking in strategic folds and dresses with architectural lines that hug the torso, exposing bare shoulders and backs in a play of balance and exquisiteness. The volumes of the skirts expand their profiles, narrowing the waist and evoking the iconic and opulent hourglass silhouette, adapted to a modern context where translucent effects give it a fluid, sumptuous appearance with a certain air of mysticism.

In the embroidery, the fusion of velvety textures and faceted jet black with a specular surface is key to this proposal, which distinguishes the way light is reflected, creating a dramatic and elegant visual effect that achieves a balance between modernity—often associated with the matte finish—and the classic elegance evoked by the shine.

The pieces, made with textures such as silk velvet, pleated organza, crystal nets, moiré taffetas, and vaporous chiffons, merge with the light of the embroidery, creating reliefs that dance with the movement of the body.

BLACKNOIR is a collection entirely made in the house’s workshops in Spain, where the density of time dissolves and sewing is approached as a meticulous exercise of precision and excellence, honoring four decades of artisanal savoir-faire, in which every stitch, every thread, and every fragment of embroidery reflects the knowledge of the skilled hands of the seamstresses who engage with the material, seeking perfection and emotion, sensitivity and beauty that slowly emerge, without measuring time.
