Inside a Milanese warehouse transformed into a charged arena of light and shadow, Fausto Puglisi reframed the Roberto Cavalli vocabulary for Fall/Winter 2026–2027 with sharpened intent. The collection did not simply reference Alvin Ailey and Marchesa Luisa Casati; it fused their mythologies into a singular proposition, sensual yet controlled, decadent yet deliberate. Italian opulence met American corporeal clarity.

For Resort 2027, Svitlana Bevza continues to champion a philosophy that has become synonymous with the house: a wardrobe built on permanence rather than excess. Rooted in exceptional craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and longevity, the collection embraces the idea that true luxury lies in owning fewer pieces of greater value. Each garment is conceived as an investment, crafted to transcend seasonal trends while maintaining its relevance and elegance for years to come.

The McQueen Pre-Fall 2026 collection marks a decisive evolution in Sean McGirr’s ongoing dialogue with one of fashion’s most formidable legacies. Rather than becoming overwhelmed by the mythology surrounding Alexander McQueen, the designer continues to sharpen his own perspective within the house, refining its codes for a new generation drawn to both precision tailoring and contemporary edge. This season, McGirr moves beyond theatrical spectacle toward a more grounded vision of everyday sophistication, while still preserving the tension, attitude, and emotional sharpness synonymous with the McQueen name.

With Pre-Fall 2026, Valentino enters a quietly transformative chapter under the creative direction of Alessandro Michele. Rather than announcing a rupture, the campaign unfolds as a subtle recalibration, an introspective dialogue between past and present, where identity is not rewritten but reawakened.

For Spring/Summer 2026, Talbot Runhof channels the enduring allure of the Italian Dolce Vita, reimagining mid-century glamour through a distinctly contemporary lens. Designers Johnny Talbot and Adrian Runhof craft a narrative that feels both cinematic and lived-in, where elegance unfolds naturally from the first light of morning to the indulgent glow of evening.

For Fall/Winter 2026–2027, Etro staged its menswear collection away from the neutrality of galleries, opting instead for the shadowed back rooms of a Brera trattoria. The intimate setting was transformed into a plush, cabinet-of-curiosities environment, where mannequins crowned with Venetian papier-mâché animal masks, owls, foxes, and other symbolic creatures formed a surreal tableau. Titled Ani-men, the collection examined the tension between cultivated elegance and primal instinct, filtering that duality through Etro’s signature lens of refined eccentricity.
