What to know about COLLINA STRADA
Climate politics drives the design
Hillary Taymour runs the label as a platform for climate and social awareness, working with deadstock and lower-impact fabrics including its own rose silk.
Loud prints, patchwork, ruched denim
The clothes rely on clashing prints, patchwork, ruching and customised denim rather than quiet basics, sitting closer to avant-garde than to streetwear staples.
The runway is the message
Collections arrive as theme-led New York presentations, developed with longtime creative collaborator and photographer Charlie Engman since ready-to-wear began in 2017.
