For Resort 2026, David Koma time-travels to the swinging sixties—not for nostalgia’s sake, but to dissect and redefine the decade’s vision of womanhood. With muses like Betty Draper and Megan Calvet from Mad Men, Koma draws from the dichotomy of 1960s femininity: perfectly coiffed and composed on the outside, simmering with autonomy and quiet rebellion underneath.

This collection lives in that tension—a dance between glamour and grit, allure and agency. It's not just a lookbook; it's a statement.

Koma’s women don’t whisper—they command. Take the acid yellow twinset with matching pearls and daring briefs: retro in silhouette but modern in intention. Or the laser-cut floral lace, engineered to crawl over skin like botanical armor—equal parts sensual and sculptural. Femininity here is a strategy, not a submission.

Inspired by Mel Ramos’ provocative pop art, Koma blurs the lines between subject and spectacle. One striking look—a block-striped bandeau paired with a voluminous ball skirt—pays direct homage to Ramos’ “Beaver Shot”, merging 60s advertising kitsch with fine art critique. Cutouts, framing details, and corset illusions throughout the collection reference Ramos’ visual vocabulary, hinting at how women are seen—and how they subvert being seen.

But Koma doesn’t linger in the past. He uses it as a launchpad for a future-facing wardrobe, where nostalgia becomes rebellion, and beauty becomes power. He’s not just dressing women—he’s arming them.

The Resort 2026 range reflects a broader evolution in the brand's strategy. While body-conscious dresses remain at the core, Koma expands his tailoring game with sharp outerwear and elevated separates. It’s a response to market demand, but also a natural extension of the brand’s voice—structured, sculptural, and unapologetically bold.

At its heart, this collection is a manifesto: a woman can be soft without being silenced, seductive without seeking approval. In Koma’s world, every pearl, every seam, every lace motif speaks volumes.

David Koma’s Resort 2026 is a time capsule with a twist—a love letter to the sixties that rewrites the message. Because this time, the woman wearing it holds the pen.
