We all love Criselda dresses, and the latest styles makes you feel that you’ve ventured into a hidden paradise of glamorous fantasy.
“Fashion swings both ways this summer as we breeze through everything synthetic in nature and beautiful in the real world,” says the brand’s creative team. The spring-summer collection features contemporary, minimalist silhouettes in an eye-catching palette of highly glamorous colors — lush shades of blue and feminine splashes of apricot and lilac. The prints evoke the sensation of viewing images through a kaleidoscope.
Earthly elements such as florals and geometric textures take on hyperreal, synthetic, pixelated proportions. There is a soft, seductive warmth to the shapes: flowing caftans, billowing sleeves, and maxi dresses that offer elegant dressing options from day to night.

Standout pieces include bright, abstract print dresses in flattering cuts, flowy silk tops paired with luxe maxi skirts, and elegant occasion-wear ensembles in neutrals, black, fuchsia and bright green.

All Criselda’s pieces are made from soft, light, breezy fabrics in breathable materials such as cotton, rayon, and charmeuse for daytime, and elegant organza, chiffon, and silk for evening. The brand’s signature Mikado and gazar fabrics are present throughout this season’s offerings, creating that dramatic Criselda statement that is the signature of the brand’s collections.
