At New York Bridal Week Fall/Winter 2026, Francesca Miranda presented a love letter to her heritage through her latest collection, “Rosas.” Hosted inside a Barrow Street townhouse transformed into a botanical escape, the presentation felt intimate, elegant, and deeply personal. Every element of the setting, from the fragrance of fresh blooms to the quiet confidence of the gowns, spoke to Miranda’s artistry and cultural pride.
A Garden of Inspiration
Miranda’s inspiration stemmed from the rose, a timeless symbol of love, resilience, and renewal. The venue was filled with hundreds of roses imported from Colombian grower Wayuu, surrounding guests in a world that captured both natural beauty and craftsmanship. The floral installations were created by New York–based Colombian artist Carolina Malabet, whose arrangements added depth and symbolism to the experience.
Bridal Artistry Rooted in Heritage
The “Rosas” collection featured eleven couture gowns, each handmade in Miranda’s Barranquilla atelier. Her designs highlighted a rich variety of textures, including soft tulle, hand-beaded lace, and sculpted organza roses. The result was a blend of tradition and innovation that gave classic femininity a contemporary edge. Each gown carried the precision of couture with the soul of Latin artistry.

A New Expression of Romance
“Rosas” is more than a collection. It is a dialogue between nature, heritage, and design. Through each creation, Miranda invites the modern bride to embrace strength and softness at once, finding beauty in both tradition and individuality. The collection is a testament to how Colombian craftsmanship continues to influence global fashion, proving that artistry rooted in culture will always transcend borders.
