Calvin Klein

Calvin Klein

Calvin Klein’s SS26 show marked a refined new chapter, with Veronica Leoni delivering a collection that was as cool as it was considered. Minimalism remained the foundation, yet here it came with depth and texture. Sharp tailoring was softened with sheer layers, delicate fringing and flashes of skin that lent a fresh, contemporary ease. A pared-back palette was elevated by subtle details – pom-pom trims, fluid tassels.

Toteme

The Toteme runway paid homage to the brand’s signature uniform dressing, with sculptural coats, floor-skimming trousers and fluid tunics. For SS26, creative director Elin Kling leaned into her Scandinavian roots with a muted palette of ivory, oat and soft grey, punctuated by inky black. Cocoon shapes and elongated knits played with proportion, making this a masterclass in minimalism with a fresh, architectural edge.

Michael Kors

Michael Kors SS26 evoked a city-ready holiday wardrobe, polished yet effortless. Set against a coastal backdrop, the collection unfolded in sand tones and breezy silhouettes, with sheer knits, oversized silk shirts and fluid tailoring forming its core. Warm neutrals were lifted with buttery yellows and sunset pinks, while fringing, shimmer and soft draping introduced texture and movement.

Prabal Gurung

Prabal Gurung injected fresh energy into NYFW with a collection that balanced romance and edge, staged against the dramatic backdrop of St. Bartholomew’s Church. Colour took centre stage, with pinks, lemons and blues running through sheer tulles, floral appliqué and fluid tailoring. Silhouettes played between softness and structure – lace knits, draped hems and open backs offset by sculptural forms that anchored the collection with confident modernity.

Khaite

Khaite’s SS26 collection offered a moody, cinematic vision of modern femininity – effortlessly cool, yet underscored by the label’s signature edge. Catherine Holstein presented deconstructed leather, undone tailoring and sheer layers that felt simultaneously powerful and pared back. A muted palette was punctuated by sharp flashes of red and oversized polka dots, ensuring the collection retained its subversive spirit.

Ulla Johnson

Ulla Johnson’s SS26 show was a masterclass in artistry – wearable watercolours with a contemporary twist. Sunset pastels cascaded across ruffled, bubble-hemmed dresses that floated with ease. Hand-dyed feathers, floral appliqués and jewel-studded tulle socks lent playful texture, while lace tights and chunky necklaces grounded the collection in Johnson’s signature boho-meets-modern aesthetic.
