Johanna Ortiz's spring 2022 collection has arrived. View every look:
Early fans of Johanna Ortiz will remember her breakthrough piece in 2015: an off-the-shoulder, puffed-sleeve, sold-out-everywhere striped shirt called the Tulum Top. Her brand has come a long way since then, aesthetically and business-wise. The top’s mix of familiarity and Latin flair has trickled out into tailoring, evening dresses, jewelry, and shoes, and nearly everything is made in Ortiz’s vertically-integrated atelier in Cali, Colombia.
The question of fashion’s purpose has come up a lot this season: Why do we need these clothes? Why should a brand even exist when the world is on fire? Ortiz’s commitment to women’s empowerment and sustainable manufacturing is a far stronger answer than most. All said, the actual clothes were similarly aligned in their focus on longevity, comfort, and sustainability. The ruffles and tiers of years past have been toned down or removed entirely, replaced by lean, wear-wherever printed dresses.
In a few cases, the “prints” were actually swirling patches of hand-woven raffia . The technique was at once entirely novel—you won’t see it in another collection this month—yet subtle enough to be truly timeless. It’s easy to imagine dozens of reasons for it to exist.
