Madrid has once again proven itself a capital of elegance and style. When Carolina Herrera chose our city to host her first-ever fashion show outside New York, launching her Spring–Summer 2026 Collection, the world turned its eyes to the heart of Spain.

For us, Madrileños, this was a moment of collective pride. Our city— celebrated for its deep history, culture, and architectural beauty — revealed a new facet: a city that pulses with modern sophistication, that lives and breathes style. The iconic buildings, the glowing streets, the perfect evening light — all formed a stunning backdrop for Herrera’s refined silhouettes.

During that night, Madrid vibrated. The air was full of anticipation, conversations in multiple languages, cameras flashing, fashion insiders and local aficionados alike felt it: this was a milestone. More than a runway show, it was an affirmation that Madrid is not just a destination of tradition, but a city of cutting-edge grace and creativity.

At Crafted for Spain Boutique Travel, we believe that boutique travel is about deep connection — to people, to place, to personality. We’re proud that Madrid hosted this landmark event. It reinforces what we already knew: that in Madrid, every moment can feel like something crafted.
