Fashion week s/s 26

This 2026 S/S season continues fashion’s fascination with layering, texture, and proportion. Muted palettes of neutrals and earth tones are punctuated by deliberate pops of color that highlight detail and form. Textures lead the narrative: leather, silk, velvet, and transparent fabrics create visual weight and tactile contrast.

Silhouettes swing between extremes: flowing sleeves and oversized shapes meet cinched waists, deep V-necks, and body-hugging cuts that echo the thin, sleek 90s aesthetic. At the same time, 80s-inspired shoulders and triangular tailoring reassert structure, particularly in trenches and jackets. Belts dominate: layered, wrapped, and doubled, as focal points that sculpt or distort the waistline.

The mood is art school meets office wear: button-downs and suiting take on avant-garde, deconstructed twists. Trains on shirts, asymmetric cut-outs, and strappy detailing add movement and drama. Riding boots and knee-highs ground the looks, shifting proportions and anchoring the playfulness above.

Overall, the runways reflect a pivot from normcore conformity toward bold, expressive individuality, where everyday wear flirts unapologetically with fantasy.
