DESIGN Forecast SS 2026 Women Youth Apparel

Published 22 November 2024 - 57 pages 27336-27392

Womenswear moves forward with powerful new proportions, balancing big oversized shapes and dynamic curved lines, with serious crops and bold statement details. The structured trapeze line and the soft, puffy blouson are key silhouettes, which are set to make an impact across soft separates and jackets.
Adaptability will be an important factor for spring summer 2026 and this translates into coordinating layers, two-piece sets and fastenings that make room for re-styling. Femme elements bring in snappy waistlines and contoured fits, while detailing moves into sweet frills, gathers and fringes.
