English

| Families visually unify individuals together to create a feeling of shared belonging. This idea of a blended group of linked yet disparate elements is explored in our color palettes for Autumn/Winter 2025/2026. Merging the familiar with the new we contrast darker rooted shades with fresh, acidic yellows, whites, and pastels, while well-loved sporty tones are unexpectedly juxtaposed with young, lively, friendly hues. Duality and duplexity, just like a family, are at the roots of the Autumn/Winter 2025/ 2026 season. |
