Bevza’s Spring Summer 2026 lookbook, unveiled in a sunlit West Chelsea space, translated Kazimir Malevich’s modernist restraint into a wardrobe where geometry dictated form and presence. Svitlana Bevza distilled the square's clarity, balance, and stability into architectural garments that favored compositional precision over ornament. A stark palette of white and black, punctuated by carrot red, deep navy, and buttery yellow, underscored the purity of shape, allowing proportion and cut to hold emotional resonance.

Silhouettes were exacting yet wearable. Zippered two-way designs, like a square top that transformed into a skirt, highlighted the collection’s modular logic, while cuboid pannier skirts and geometric-collared shirts reaffirmed the square as a central motif. In contrast, bamboo-jersey dresses demonstrated Bevza’s command of fluidity, their draped liquidity controlled so precisely that they read sculptural rather than soft. Long lines dominated, with ankle-grazing dresses and boxy cropped tops reinforcing the collection’s architectural rhythm.

Fabrication supported the geometry’s rigor: dense cottons and crepes provided structure for boxy volumes, while bamboo jersey and fine knits allowed for disciplined movement. Seams and hems were crisply executed, and hidden zippers ensured that construction remained clean and deliberate. Surface treatment was minimal, with color-blocking and silhouette doing the work of expression.

Accessories carried conceptual weight rather than flourish. Bevza’s recurring wheat sheaf motif—an emblem of heritage—appeared as a coated necklace and, more provocatively, as a face mask, folding cultural symbolism into modernist form. These accents punctuated the collection with quiet resonance, functioning as emblems rather than embellishments.

By balancing modernist rigor with practical wearability, Bevza’s SS26 lookbook delivered a meditation on form itself: garments that exist as much as architectural propositions as they do clothes for daily life. Geometry here was not abstraction but embodiment – a wearable dialogue between structure, heritage, and restraint.
