For Spring/Summer 2026, MALAIKARAISS unveils a quietly powerful reflection on form and feeling, an introspective collection that strips away excess to reveal the strength of silhouette, texture, and intention. Designer Malaika Raiss distills her aesthetic into an artful capsule where every line, curve, and surface feels considered, even whispered.

Rooted in the brand’s Berlin-based cool, the collection speaks to a woman of balance—romantic yet unflinching, sensual yet structured. Raiss, long admired for her contemporary bridal and occasion wear, uses this season to explore the emotional resonance of minimalism. Each piece feels like a sculpture in motion, crafted to express dualities: strength and softness, discipline and desire.

Highlights include a black velvet halter gown precise in its architecture, with a removable lacquer-finished nylon belt that introduces a utilitarian edge. It’s this tension between softness and function that defines the narrative. Dresses in sheer sequined fabric skim the body like light over water, capturing movement and intimacy with poetic restraint.

The palette is pared down to black, white, and silver—but its silence is intentional. Volume and texture do the storytelling. Narrow column shapes meet voluminous sleeves and billowing skirts, tracing silhouettes that invite both protection and exposure. The mood is meditative, but never static.

MALAIKARAISS doesn’t shout. Instead, it murmurs with elegance, placing its faith in craftsmanship, mood, and modularity. This collection isn’t just worn—it’s felt. And in that sensation lies its enduring power.
