DESIGNER: CLARA COLETTE MIRAMON
Clara Colette Miramon delivered a haunting and provocative vision of femininity, raw, surreal, and unapologetically subversive.
Titled Spring 2026, the collection unfolded not just as a fashion show, but as a gripping tableau of performance and social critique. Set outdoors on a stark runway flanked by hospital beds and ambulances, the stage blurred reality with fiction. The setup served not only as a metaphor for care and confinement but as a visceral extension of the garments themselves—deliberately unsettling, emotionally charged, and narratively rich.
Miramon’s signature corsetry, long a symbol of feminine control and body politics, was transformed this season into fragile, almost spectral pieces. Lingerie-inspired silhouettes clung delicately to the body, their fragility emphasised by frayed hems, sheer textures, and off-kilter tailoring that evoked both intimacy and unease.
In line with the collection’s clinical aesthetic, nurse-like uniforms were reinterpreted into minimalist, sculpted garments. Bandage-like wraps and orthopaedic-style white shoes amplified the narrative of vulnerability. At the same time, sharply structured bustiers and peekaboo cut-outs suggested the tension between exposure and protection, between softness and structure.
What emerged was a collection steeped in contrasts: pain and poise, eroticism and fragility, healing and harm. Red eyeshadow, applied to the lower lids of models, created a bruised, feverish gaze, a visual metaphor for emotional unrest and a youth navigating internal scars. The result was not just clothing, but a coming-of-age story, told through fashion that explores the quiet violence and resilience of the feminine experience.
In Spring 2026, Clara Colette Miramon doesn’t just design garments, she crafts visual poetry, weaving a ghostly nostalgia with contemporary edge. Her work continues to redefine the boundaries between fashion, art, and psychological theatre.
