BARCELONA | If fashion is both a design discipline as well as an art, Cortana accomplishes them both. Cortana boutique is located in a typical classic building of Eixample District. Very close to Passeig de Gracia and the emblematic Gaudi’s La Pedrera, Cortana boutique has a Zen atmosphere. It’s located in the below ground level, with windows overlooking the streets. Inside, the designs delicately hung from the ceiling, emphasizing their elegant essence.
Cortana’s designs show exquisite elegance and personality. The finest quality of the fabrics: silk, mohair, cashmere. The excellent tailoring and artisan finishing. Design and refined personality.
The 2013/14 Autum-Winter Collection was designed as an ode to the past, integrating futuristic elements . It harmoniously mixes opposites: The austerity and simplicity of the shapes combined with shiny materials. Day wear items are designed to be comfortable and seductive. Evening gowns and jumpsuits come with an outstanding elegance. Optical illusions of a sidereal world. But also a woman that evokes the essence of feminine icons of Hollywood ‘s Golden Years or the sensuality of the Wong Kar Wai films.
The collection flourishes in cosmic colors: blue and petroleum green, orange, and purple, with glitter effects. There’s also a spot for the always effective black and white; and prints of galactic inspiration.

The ingredients of the bridal collection are romanticism and sensibility jazzed up by lovely details. Timeless beautiful pieces, versatile dresses, transformed by enveloping laces, shawls and veils.
Classic and modern lines are in search of beauty, depicting sensuality through the extremely delicate materials: lace, silk muslin, sateen, tulle, Chantilly, in loose silhouette with artisan draped shapes.
