SS26 Seasonal highlight
A closer look at the themes and inspirations shaping the season.
Not every season is about reinvention, and this is one of them. After seeing firsthand what was presented at Pitti Uomo in Florence, where the industry sets the tone globally, one thing became clear: this season isn’t about doing more — it’s about doing things better.
Better fabrics, better proportions and a more natural way of getting dressed. You don’t need to change your style; you just need to refine it.
Muted greens, deep browns, softened creams, and light greys define the palette this season. They’re not loud — and that’s exactly the point.
These are colours that:
- Work seamlessly with what you already own
- Layer effortlessly
- Elevate even the simplest outfits
This is why they continue to dominate across every label we carry. It’s not a trend — it’s a system that works.

Silhouettes are opening up — more room through the leg, shoulder, and body. But this isn’t about going oversized.
Too baggy can feel junior, unrefined. The key is balance: relaxed, but intentional.
Especially in summer, this shift makes sense:
- Linen breathes better
- Fabrics drape more naturally
- Outfits feel lighter, not forced
It’s comfort — without losing polish.

Prep never really left — it just needed to evolve. This season, it comes back more relaxed, more wearable.
Penny loafers, lightweight blazers, classic shirting — paired with relaxed denim, tailored shorts, or even more casual pieces.
There’s a strong East Coast influence, driven by a younger generation that understands how to mix structure with ease.
Even the office looks shifts:
- More relaxed Fridays
- Tailoring with tennis-style sneakers
- Less rigidity, more intention
It feels familiar — just sharper and more relevant.

Western has also been around for a long time. What’s changed is how it’s being worn.
Cleaner. More understated. Suede, denim, subtle texture — integrated into everyday outfits without feeling literal. You don’t need to dress like a cowboy to wear these pieces.
In fact, much of this refined approach has been shaped by Japanese fashion. Brands have spent years reinterpreting American western and workwear — focusing on construction, fabric, and proportion with an almost obsessive level of detail. The result isn’t costume — it’s intention.

This is where things truly change.
Leather is no longer heavy. It’s no longer restrictive, and it’s no longer reserved for colder seasons.
Advancements in processing have made it possible to create leather so light it feels like a shirt. It breathes. It moves. It adapts.
And while some of these pieces often sit at a higher price point, there’s a reason —very few in the world can achieve this level of craftsmanship.
You have to feel it to understand it.
What it becomes:
- A true mid-layer
- An everyday essential
- A piece that elevates without trying
And it’s no longer just black or brown — there’s depth, variation, and personality in the colour.
