I was lucky enough to meet Cristina Castañer a few summers ago. We spent a few days together, enjoying the Mediterranean, the one that she and her brand represent so well.
In the long distances it imposes. A businesswoman, with a family legacy who has been maintaining success for many years.
In short distances he falls in love. His joviality and joy. The passion with which she lives things and her great interest in art and fashion make her one of the most fascinating women in our country.
Her adventurous character always leads her to create new projects. He did it already in 1994 when he opened the store of the Castañer family business, a boutique related to what the customer was used to.
Now Cristina Castañer embarks on another fascinating project. Her own line of bags Cristina C. My Bestys. It is a line of temporary bags made with recycled canvases.
These sustainable bags were born in an old mattress fabric factory. Cristiana fell in love with the quality of the fabrics and recovered them to give them a second life.
This is how these perfect accessories for any occasion have been created. Made of unique cottons from the 50s, a quality of fabric that today would be difficult to find.
This first limited edition collection combines in its proposal the values that Cristina Castañer herself seeks in a bag: quality, functionality, exclusivity, craftsmanship, tradition and, as a good brand of the house, the good work "Made in Spain".
"I like to create trends, not copy them. I'm inspired by life, a landscape, a city, a smell, people..." Cristina once said. Today she shows us that she is the trend with her new collection of bags.
