This SS26 season, Claro Couture kicked off Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Madrid with Rosé Noir, a collection that feels like a love letter to pure elegance. Indeed, it draws inspiration from the glamorous 1920s and bold 1990s. Moreover, this line blends sparkle, sensual silhouettes, and strong femininity.
The runway show opened with Peggy Lee’s Fever playing through the venue. It set the perfect mood for what was about to unfold. From the very first look, the collection transported the audience into a world between an Art Deco cabaret and the backstage energy of a 90s rave. Satin heels made their mark on the runway. Meanwhile, models embodied beauty that was bold, confident, and effortlessly feminine.

Color played a powerful role in this collection. Soft, powdery tones like blush pink, mint green, and vintage yellow paired with Claro Couture’s signature black and white. Together, these shades gave the collection a dreamy, nostalgic feel while keeping it modern and sophisticated.
Rosé Noir brings glamour to Madrid’s runway
The silhouettes moved seamlessly from day to night. Sharp mini dresses, tailored blazers with cinched waists, and perfectly cut trousers appeared on the runway. In addition, eveningwear ranged from sleek satin gowns to dramatic, eye-catching pieces. Fabrics added depth with crisp poplin, sheer muslin, crystal-embroidered crochet, and flowing silk satin crepe.
What truly made the collection stand out were the details. Hand-embroidered embellishments, crystal braiding, and luminous finishes elevated every look.

Details that define timeless elegance
Beyond the visual spectacle, Claro Couture’s craftsmanship was clear. Every stitch seemed intentional. Every seam was purposeful. Therefore, the garments celebrated not just the female form but the spirit behind it. The mix of vintage inspiration and contemporary tailoring created a dialogue between past and present. Hence, each piece felt both nostalgic and forward-looking.

Personally, what I loved most was the story the collection told. Claro Couture didn’t just design beautiful garments. Instead, they created a mood, a moment, and an experience that felt intimate and unforgettable.
Rosé Noir is a collection that lingers long after the final walk on the runway. It’s a clear reminder that Claro Couture is not just participating in fashion but shaping it.
