J’ESSENTIA’s Spring/Summer 2025 collection, titled “La nuova PrimavERA,” is a tribute to the art of renewal and rebirth, sublimated in the acrylic painting “La Primavera” by artist and designer Francesca Jennifer Puzzo. J’ESSENTIA PrimavERA Collection is primarily developed through unique accessories that combine the elegance of fashion with the beauty of art. The bags, crafted from fine leather and imperial satin, stand out for their geometric shapes and special details. Each bag is personalized with elements inspired by the painting, including an interior lined and decorated with the print of “La Primavera” and the lotus flower, an accessory worn by the woman in the painting, transformed into a charm or detail for the clutch closures.
Silk Foulards as Wearable Art
Pure silk foulards from Como are a fundamental part of the collection. Each foulard is adorned with unique prints of Francesca Jennifer Puzzo’s works, with hand-stitched edges that highlight the craftsmanship. The collection’s colors—white, fuchsia, green, and black—reflect the hues of the painting, infusing vitality, brightness, peace, and natural beauty into those who wear them.
The “La nuova PrimavERA” collection aims to celebrate the highest expression of nature’s renewal, awakening, and rebirth. The black-and-white checkerboard pattern of the dress worn by the woman in the painting tells the essence of duality and choices, creating a harmonious blend of contrasting tones illuminated by a meadow of colors, flowers, and spring scents. This scenario serves as an inspiration for a new initiation to life.
Key Features of J’ESSENTIA PrimavERA Collection
Distinctive elements of the collection include a 3D flower created with high-frequency machines, fringes made from tannery leather scraps transformed into unique wearable art pieces, canvas and inner linings with spring motifs, and bag handles covered in printed satin tubing. The resort wear and summer party tailoring feature decorated buttons and inner linings printed with the spring painting.
Artist Francesca Jennifer Puzzo embodies her Sicilian origins and celebrates the island’s craftsmanship by dedicating a capsule to the symbolism of “Sicilia Bedda.” This line highlights traditional “coffe siciliane,” hand-woven baskets made from dried dwarf palm leaves, originally used by farmers to transport provisions.
The SS25 collection by J’ESSENTIA is not just a line of accessories, but a sensory experience that unites fashion, art, and culture. Each piece is designed to enrich personal elegance with a touch of artistic and artisanal history.
