At Ebisu Garden Hall in Tokyo, Viviano unveiled its Fall/Winter 2025-2026 collection, Colpo di Fulmine—Italian for “love at first sight”—a poetic ode to the electrifying spontaneity of creation. Designer Viviano Sue embraced an instinctive, almost impulsive approach, layering textures and silhouettes with an air of unrestrained artistry.

Frilled tulle cascaded across the body in dynamic waves, transforming into tops, fitted skirts, pants, and jumpsuits that seemed to breathe with movement. Double-breasted coats with dramatically oversized collars juxtaposed lustrous satin with Western-inspired quilted patterns, showcasing Sue’s flair for unexpected material interplay.

The collection favored fluidity, yet bursts of structured volume punctuated the softness—balloon-like hems on leather mini skirts and Western-detailed dresses sculpted a rounded silhouette, adding an element of playful exaggeration. In a breathtaking finale, voluminous dresses with buoyant, cloud-like contours floated down the runway, their exaggerated busts and necklines evoking a dreamlike weightlessness.

A study in instinct and the fleeting beauty of inspiration, Viviano’s latest offering captures the magic of fashion’s most intoxicating moments—the ones that strike like lightning, leaving an imprint long after they fade.
