Spring/Summer 2026.Look book

The season, in twelve looks.

The collection arrives in stores on the first of February and stays through July. Twelve looks, photographed in a single afternoon, on models who have worked with the house since the founding season. The pairing carries the look book, the lookcard, the price list, and the press release.

By the creative director

Season.

Set in Cormorant Garamond, with body in Montserrat.

Spring/Summer arrives in twelve looks across three colour palettes. Autumn/Winter follows the same structure in heavier fabrics. The look book is shot in the same studio, by the same photographer, with the same lighting, in February and August every year.

“A collection is an argument made of fabric. The look book is the index.”

From the creative director

Production note

Where the fabric comes from

Every fabric in the collection is sourced from a mill we have visited and worked with for at least three seasons. We publish the mill name on the care label of every garment, alongside the country of make and the wash instructions.
