Johanna Ortiz Winter Sun 2027: Casa Loro, The Cartagena Edit, and the Pieces to Buy

The short answer: Winter Sun 2027 is Johanna Ortiz’s new holiday delivery, built around a story the house calls Casa Loro and tagged The Cartagena Edit. It is a capsule of poplin and linen dresses, cotton pareos, a printed maxi skirt and two lycra one-pieces in ecru, green, wine and chocolate. The pieces to buy first are the Another Chance Dress and the Solar Drift Object Pareo in Ecru and Black. Everything is on the Johanna Ortiz page.

Winter sun collections are for women who travel south in December and January: to the Caribbean, to Cartagena, to the Gulf and the Indian Ocean. Johanna Ortiz founded her label in Cali, Colombia, in 2003, and still designs and produces there, working with Colombian artisans on the prints, the embroidery and the hand finishing. This delivery leans botanical, with palm fronds, parrots and leaves in deep green and wine set against ecru, and it is cut in fabrics made for real heat: light poplin, cotton voile and linen.
