컬렉션: Simone Rocha - Women

Trained at the Royal College of Art in London after studying in Dublin, Simone Rocha has, since its founding in 2010, built a house whose creative identity is as consistent and as instantly recognizable as that of designers who have taken decades to find their voice. The singularity of her approach lies in a rare ability: that of taking the aesthetic codes most associated with a certain idea of fragile and ornamental femininity – pearl embroideries, layered tulles, puff sleeves, and delicate transparencies – and imbuing them with a psychological tension and emotional density that transforms them into something fundamentally different from what they appear to be at first glance. Femininity at Simone Rocha is never decorative; it is always a statement and often an armor.

The designer's Irish heritage, her intimate knowledge of historical costume acquired from the collections of the Victoria and Albert Museum, and her sensitivity to the most complex Victorian references form the cultural material of a creative work that refuses to separate beauty from resilience, apparent fragility from real protection. The SS26 women's collection pushes this exploration towards volumes that have never been so generous and assertive. Multi-layered tulle and crinkled organza, whose irregular folds create shifting light effects, sketch ample and airy silhouettes whose visual lightness deliberately contrasts with the groundedness produced by the utilitarian details and thick soles characteristic of the house. Pearls embroidered directly onto fabrics like skin jewelry, exaggerated puff sleeves that simultaneously enlarge and protect the body, and plays of transparency that reveal without ever showing everything, compose an aesthetic vocabulary of such richness and consistency that every Simone Rocha piece becomes a dreamlike and resolutely wearable object, designed for those who understand that the most powerful femininity is that which chooses its own terms.

At Actuel B, we offer a selection from the Simone Rocha women's collection, available in our stores in Avignon and Arles, as well as on our website. Dresses, jackets, accessories, and shoes are presented by teams trained in the romantic and subversive world of the house, with the personalized advice that characterizes our approach to multi-brand luxury.
