Antonina Poppy: Capsule 01 La Dualità Paris Fashion Week Presentation

A sense of patience and deliberate craft guides every facet of Antonina Poppy, our Florence-based atelier where fashion, jewelry and accessories are conceived in harmony with tradition, sustainability and the measured rhythms of slow fashion. Each collection reflects a careful balance between material integrity and design intent: our signature women’s shirts are rendered in ethically sourced silk, fisherman-style jumpers and hand-knitted crochet pieces are crafted from the finest merino yarns and our jewellery is made from ethically harvested freshwater pearls, carefully selected stones and recycled metals. In every piece, the artisanal hand of Florence is evident, ensuring objects that are both functional and expressive, timeless yet contemporary.

Capsule 01: La Dualità explores the dialogue between opposing facets of human nature. It tells the story of a woman who inhabits two worlds: one intimate and practical, where clothing feels effortless and almost hidden; the other expressive and ceremonial, where couture pieces assert presence and confidence. This capsule rejects the notion of choosing a side or settling for the middle, celebrating instead the coexistence of dual identities. Clean lines, tactile fabrics, and precise construction bring ease and couture together, allowing the wearer to inhabit and harmonize both realities.

The philosophy underpinning Antonina Poppy extends beyond material excellence to a cultivated way of seeing and wearing, where the value of a garment or accessory is revealed through attentive engagement. Just as one might linger over a cup of coffee in the streets of Florence, allowing time to savor aroma, warmth and ritual, so too does the observer discover the nuanced beauty of carefully considered textures, subtle details and ethical provenance. Here, garments and jewelry are not ephemeral commodities but enduring expressions of heritage, sustainability and meticulous craftsmanship, designed to be appreciated slowly, consciously and fully. 

In this deliberate encounter, ANTONINA POPPY offers more than clothing or adornment, it offers an invitation to inhabit a space where la dolce vita is woven into the very fabric of creation.
