Kartika x Morelli: “Be Yourself” is the mood of the new SS26!

Hello Dreamers! Have you ever wanted a pair of shoes that spoke just about you? On the set of the new collection Morelli Spring/Summer 2026, we met the bubbly Kartika Malavasi.

The name of the collection is a true manifesto: “Be Yourself“. Who better than Kartika, with her energy and her thousand interests (between film sets and social media!), could tell us what it means to really be yourself?

🌟 Being yourself: Kartika's challenge

Kartika, the new collection is called “Be Yourself”. In a world of filters and trends that change every second, how important is it for you to remain authentic?
“It is fundamental! Especially at our age, it is easy to be told by others how we should be, instead you should always be yourself without being afraid of feeling judged. For me, ‘Be Yourself’ means choosing an outfit that reflects my mood, not what's fashionable.”

What makes you feel most “yourself” when you are on set or in everyday life?
“Definitely spontaneity. Even during the shoot for Morelli, I had fun interpreting the different models in the collection through my own way of being. Fashion should not be a mask, but a way of bringing out who we really are.”

The “Be Yourself” Collection Must-Haves”

We saw that you loved this season's novelties. Which Morellis scream “Kartika!” at first glance?
“Without a doubt the white trainers with the gold chain detail I love. But the real surprise were the black and white lace-up trainers: they have unique details that make you feel special even in a simple pair of jeans.”

A styling tip for our readers?
“Don't be afraid of contrasts! Try the most elegant shoes in the collection with a super sporty look, or trainers under a pleated skirt. Being yourself also means making your own rules!”

Between career and dreams

From the Riv4li series to fashion sets: your career is taking off. What is the next step to “being yourself” at 100%?
“I want to continue studying and putting myself out there. My dream is that every girl who follows me feels encouraged to pursue her passions, without fear of judgement. The ‘Be Yourself’ collection is dedicated precisely to this courage.”

✨ Enter the Be Yourself world

Kartika's lesson is clear: there is no accessory more beautiful than one's own personality. Morelli SS26 shoes were born to give rhythm to your steps, whatever direction you decide to take.
