Francesca Miranda, Rosas in Bloom
The sweet scent of hundreds of Colombian roses linger in the air of a West Village townhouse as Francesca Miranda unveils her Fall 2026 Couture Collection, Rosas. Alluding to the timeless beauty of roses, Miranda creates a space that outwardly manifests the brand’s balance of tradition and innovation, resulting in a uniquely floral immersive experience.
The collection, which marks Miranda’s return to New York Bridal Fashion Week, features eleven handmade gowns, carefully created in her Barranquilla atelier.
Delicate textures serve as a bridge between emotion and design. Each gown floats between softness and structure. Sheer polka-dot tulle draped against sculpted organza roses, their surfaces are lined with intricate beading and lace. Together, they form the quiet power and feminine grace Miranda is known for.
In the West Village, the installation provides the perfect stage for the collection to stand out. Surrounded by floral arrangements made by New York–based Colombian artist Carolina Malabet, the gowns emanate an “intricate, feminine, and alive” spirit that embodies the world of Francesca Miranda Bridal.
Floral motifs adorn the structural designs in the forms of high neck silhouettes that make use of lacework and sheer fabrics. Some gowns show more skin than others andsome have uniquely detailed fabric work, but they all come together to create a dreamy, bridal floral garden brought to life through garments.
Miranda, whose work is known for reflecting her Latin American roots, collaborated with Photographer Andrés Oyuela, another Colombian creative, now based in New York, to capture the essence of Rosas. Through their shared vision, the collection becomes a dialogue between Colombia’s artisanal traditions and the evolving identity of the modern bride.
With each gown from Rosas, Miranda celebrates the idea of “evolving with grace while honoring where we come from.” Like the rose itself, her designs carry the qualities she sees in the women she designs for: Love, Strength, Beauty.
