Cadica’s Autumn.Winter 26/27 collection marks a turning point in the brand’s creative journey. With BEAUTÈ, Cadica launches a collection that doesn’t simply follow seasonal trends, but proposes a fresh paradigm: what if the smallest fashion components became the most expressive?
This question led Cadica to the world of beauty – not just as a theme, but as a language. The curves of fragrance bottles, the glow of transparent glass, the layered complexity of skin textures, the contrast between shine and matte, softness and structure—BEAUTÈ transforms these elements into tactile, visual and emotional accessories.
“BEAUTÈ isn’t just a name. It’s a design philosophy – one where beauty becomes the medium, not just the message. A vision in which every label, tag, or trim isn’t simply added to a garment – but belongs to the story it tells.”


At the heart of this collection is a sensory philosophy: design is not only seen, it is touched, felt, and experienced. The creative process began with materials. What could be done with silicone when treated like a beauty product? What if metallic yarns were crinkled to capture light like a shimmering eye shadow? Could plexiglas and aluminium be layered in a way that recalls the transparency and refraction of crystal vials?
The result is a range of garment accessories that invite interaction. These aren’t mere functional details – they are protagonists. From spray-coated finishes to iridescent overlays, from multi-level 3D printing to the incorporation of glass-like surfaces, each accessory is a conversation between technology and elegance.
BEAUTÈ is structured into Cadica’s four signature creative clusters, each reimagined through this sensory lens.
Exquisite embraces radiance, playing with transparency, sheen, and lightness. Labels and tags emerge with almost ethereal qualities – soft to the eye, delicate to the touch, but crafted with technical precision. Materials include translucent silicone, reflective films, and soft-touch coated papers. These pieces evoke the finesse of high-end skincare packaging, celebrating elegance in the smallest details.
Bridge continues to be the fusion point of function and design. Here, Cadica explores accessories that are highly practical yet refined in aesthetic. Thread stoppers become sculptural. Hangtags in anodised metal get the same design care as premium cosmetics. Bridge is about the accessory that performs, but also belongs on a beauty counter.
DNM Core is rooted in the authentic world of denim, but now layered with sensual textures and contrasts. Silicone patches echo the tactile sensation of creams and balms. Recycled yarns are treated with shimmer to catch the eye without overpowering. There’s a sense of modern nostalgia: raw edges meet glossy surfaces, tradition intersects with innovation.
Performance takes a bold leap, applying beauty’s obsession with surface perfection to technical materials. Labels for sportswear and activewear use layered compositions and innovative adhesives, designed to resist wear while maintaining elegance. The results feel luxurious but are built for endurance.


The BEAUTÈ collection also introduces a capsule of waistband labels, often overlooked but central to brand identity. These pieces are minimalist yet emotionally resonant. From brushed textures to metallic logo embossing, the waistband becomes a quiet emblem of brand storytelling.
What truly sets BEAUTÈ apart is the intentional imperfection. In a world that often seeks polish, this collection dares to highlight irregularity as beauty. Wrinkled textures, uneven coatings, shadowed transparency—all crafted to evoke the natural variations found in skin, light, and glass. The result is not artificial perfection, but crafted sincerity.
This philosophy aligns with Cadica’s ongoing commitment to innovation and sustainability. Many of the materials used in BEAUTÈ are sourced responsibly, with options for recyclability and reduced environmental impact. Processes such as waterless finishing, non-toxic pigments, and digital prototyping reflect Cadica’s drive toward a more sustainable future.
BEAUTÈ is also a call to designers– a proposal that garment accessories can be more than just final steps in production. They can be the beginning of a brand’s dialogue with its customer. They can evoke feeling, memory, luxury and functionality all at once.
Through this collection, Cadica confirms its role not only as a supplier, but as a partner in creative direction—supporting brands in expressing their identity at every touchpoint: visually, materially, and emotionally.
BEAUTÈ isn’t just a name. It’s a design philosophy—one where beauty becomes the medium, not just the message. A vision in which every label, tag, or trim isn’t simply added to a garment—but belongs to the story it tells.

MATERIA FUTURA – SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS
