See every look from Saint Sintra's fall 2022 collection now.
Sintra Martins is a New Yorker’s designer. Even if her models teetered on T-bar stiletto heels, her ideas about dressing are firmly footed in the core belief of Big Apple style: that a garment’s purpose comes second to the attitude it evokes. The Sintra mood is short, sexy, and a little catty, but for fall she pushed past costume and into ready-to-wear.
When Martins’s trip to Florence, Italy, in late 2021 got extended because of COVID precautions, she fell in love with the city and its fabrics. All the shirting stripes in this collection, tied up into bows on button-downs, were custom-made by an Italian producer. Tweeds, laced with metallic silver ribbons, came from the same mill that produces for Chanel.
