In a world where fashion has become increasingly casual, and trend cycles move faster than ever, Alexia María is choosing a different pace, one rooted in glamour. Earlier this month, she released a new collection that blends nostalgia with intentional style, offering timeless looks meant to live beyond a single season.

Stern. The celebration, titled ‘A Night of Elegance’, was co-hosted by fashion and beauty entrepreneur Olivia Palermo, who wore the new line, styled with a pearl necklace that further complemented its classy, timeless style.

The Mexican designer has dressed Paris Hilton, Ariana Grande, America Ferrera, Hilary Duff, Gwen Stefani, and, more recently, Nadia Ferreira, who wore a gown by her to ¡HOLA! Latina Powerhouse gala in Miami.

The result is a set of modern and elegant pieces that hold their own across seasons, occasions, and years. Alexia María shared the inspiration behind the collection and the mission that has always guided her work. “I’ve always designed for the women in my life, elegant, graceful, and endlessly inspiring.”
“This collection is a reflection of the incredible women who wear Alexia María and make dressing up an art form of their own.”
The launch also marked a meaningful milestone for the brand as Alexia María officially transitions to an annual collection model centered on timeless design, versatility, and enduring craftsmanship. It signals a new rhythm for the designer, one that prioritizes longevity and emphasizes that glamour is not linked to a fashion calendar.
At the event, guests stepped into the world of Alexia María, where they enjoyed bowtinis and music and previewed select pieces from the collection displayed on dress forms throughout the residence, turning the evening into an exhibition of craftsmanship.
The guest list included fashion, media, and tastemakers such as Tracy Anderson, Mary Leest, and Samantha Barry, alongside close friends of the brand and longtime Alexia María women, many dressed in looks from past and present collections. The designer dedicated the night to all of them.
“Tonight was not only a celebration of the new collection, but of every woman who joined me this evening to reignite the art of dressing up.”
Alexia María’s new collection is an invitation to return to fashion that feels luxurious, intentional, and beautiful. A Year of Elegance reminds us that joy, confidence, and artistry can still begin with something as timeless as the act of dressing up.
