Zufi Alexander in Madrid: Beauty, style and an unexpected encounter

By Cristina Solymosi, founder of MA BELLE Expirience

A few days ago, my team and I had the privilege of handling the Zufi Alexander's makeup and hairstyle , the renowned handbag designer, during her visit to Madrid on the occasion of the prestigious LOEWE FOUNDATION Craft Prize 2025 , held in the Thyssen-Bornemisza National Museum .

During his stay in the At Hotel Santo Mauro , we were responsible for enhancing her image for the various engagements she had planned. It was during this makeup and styling process, amidst brushstrokes and flourishes, that I had the What a lovely coincidence to meet her in person! and enjoy a sincere and close conversation.

 Between paintbrushes and confidences

We talked about his recent visit to the Cannes Film Festival , red carpet style codes, and how some looks opted for tradition, while others surprised by breaking the mold:

“That’s the beauty of style,” she told me, “every look has its own story, and fashion comes to life through the person who wears it.”

Mother, businesswoman, and woman with purpose

Zufi is a mother and businesswoman, and she speaks with serenity and confidence about that balance. Her manner was impeccable, professional, and full of humanity. She showed genuine respect for the work behind the glamour, something that is deeply appreciated.

Beyond beauty

For us, beauty has always been a bridge to genuine connection. Meeting Zufi was much more than a makeup session: it was a moment of complicity, closeness, and mutual admiration.

A discreet yet powerful inspiration

Zufi Alexander is one of those women who shine from within. She left us not only with the image of an impeccable guest, but also with the memory of someone who inspires through her authenticity.
