The Fall Winter 2022/23 collection by JOY MERIBE goes through various phases of fashion, inspired by the60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and 2000s. This collection was born from the desire to dress women in general with elegance and femininity, bringing a little colour in their wardrobe.

This collection is the fruit of committed development and research of a recognizable style which Joy Meribe is known for, and the essentiality that comes from her second passion after fashion, which is nature. In February 2022 the Joy Meribe collection is more romantic with dresses with soft lines obtained with light fabrics, lace, precious embroidery, combined with prints of nature and doves with olive branches as a sign of peace, exclusively created by the designer. In addition, there is more full-bodied materials such as cotton silk and asooke, a hand-woven fabric made in Nigeria, for the realization of the iconic pieces.

A collection in the name of normality far from the times of a pandemic and a prayer for peace in the world!

The Joy Meribe collection is entirely made in Italy, in artisan atelier with natural or man-made Italian fabrics, in full respect of a profound social sustainability, a theme that the designer supports with all her collections.
