Working Editions: CristaSeya
A quick conversation with creative director Cristina Casini about CristaSeya's eighth edition.
You work in “editions” rather than “collections.” Why is that?
Being a stylist, I was bored by the fast consumption and the general lack of quality of the fashion system. I wanted to create special, timeless clothing and objects that you can live with for a long time.
CristaSeya spans a range of media, including clothing, art, ceramics, furniture and more. Do you see it as a means of expression rather than an actual brand?
That’s a beautiful way to describe it. CristaSeya is about living well; every element that we add to the range comes from something or someone real and tangible that has inspired us, especially in our travels.
