With Crafty, Abraham Ortuño channels childhood curiosity into layered silhouettes and playful proportions—just as the designer steps into a new chapter at Camper.

Photographer Justine Loffredo captures the atmosphere backstage during Paris Fashion Week in this exclusive, offering an intimate glimpse before Abraham Ortuño, ABRA showed his Fall Winter 2026 collection “Crafty”. Just earlier in the week Abraham was announced as the new creative director of Spanish footwear brand Camper, marking a major step in the designer’s career and putting all eyes on ABRA.

For this season, the collection draws inspiration from Abraham’s niece and nephew, whose time spent with him in the studio subtly shaped its direction. Their small, instinctive contributions, dolls’ clothes, school projects and unusual combinations of textures, inspired the playful spirit of the designs.

Movement becomes central, expressed through exaggerated details, layered silhouettes, contrasting fabrics and whimsical proportions, with each look carrying a surprising detail that has become part of ABRA’s signature. At its core, the collection celebrates the freedom of dressing, guided by feeling rather than traditional sizing or expectations. The collection encourages prioritizes comfort while following instinct, approaching fashion with a childlike spontaneity.
