About Maison Gracen
Maison Gracen is a fashion brand that pays homage to craftsmanship, sustainability, and slow fashion.
It specializes in hand-crocheted garments and accessories made with high-quality yarns such as mohair, merino, and alpaca to offer an exclusive and personalized product.
Marta Granados, a fashion stylist and graduate of IED Madrid, designs and crochets each piece with dedication and care. Thanks to her years of experience living in Germany, she brings an international perspective to her work.
Among her sources of inspiration are Scandinavian art and culture, particularly Hygge, as a tribute to the appreciation of life's simple pleasures.
Her collections are born from introspective narratives and her passionate and poetic vision of art, with the aim of telling stories that can move us.

“GEGENWART” COLLECTION
There is no future without a present, just as there is no present without a past; and this dichotomy is the source of inspiration for this collection.
Historical figures who have woven their own stories, even when the scenario was terrifying, to transcend time and inspire us. The human capacity to create a beautiful present within a desolate time. I was inspired by the multifaceted Lee Miller as a reference and starting point to begin creating this collection. The strength to persevere, resilience, the will to live and to want to be present. Sometimes even in the face of our adversary.
Creating while others destroy. Transforming ourselves to transform our reality, within our present.
The conclusion is that eternity is real. Craftsmanship is proof of it.
Holding onto that feeling and being present, to stop waiting.
Gegenwart.
A very ambitious collection that was dreamed up before it was created. Comprising eighteen entirely hand-crocheted and handcrafted total looks, the collection was created in a home studio, serving as a studio for the slow and meticulous development of a collection that combines culottes with capes, midi pencil skirts, maxi collars and harem pants, maxi dresses, and hats. Large volumes, a metaphor for seeking space, are achieved through the combination of different crochet techniques and stitches, such as the "Loop Stitch" effect on collars, dresses, and capes.
The color palette features contrasting yet harmonious elements: white, black, beige, blush pink, indigo blue, and red accents that provide a counterpoint.
And the common thread is Lee Miller's life, like a tightrope in the creative process of producing something unintentionally beautiful, yet always with the same objective: to move us.
