The fall 2026 shows may have ended in March, but the trends found on the runways in New York, London, Milan, and Paris are still fresh on our minds. While each label presented a distinct vision for the season, as always, there were certain themes and throughlines that connected the collections. Here are 14 of our favorites, which you’ll surely see everywhere come September.
Building a Wardrobe
For his final collection at Alaïa, Pieter Mulier stressed that his goal was to “create real clothes.” Turns out, he wasn’t the only one for the fall 2026 season: Celine, Loro Piana, Ralph Lauren, and many more focused on an approach to fashion design we’re calling “wardrobe dressing.” The look is less about fully styled, head-to-toe fashion, and more about key items that can be mixed into your closet and actually lived in. Prada reinforced the concept via its show format: 15 models repeatedly circled the runway, removing layers of clothing each time they walked.

Full-Look Policy
By contrast, fashion houses like Chanel—whose new designer Matthieu Blazy created a collection that sold out the day it hit stores—embraced the full look. Both he and Tom Ford’s Haider Ackermann, along with Celine designer Michael Rider, presented pieces that were meant to be worn and styled together. They would look stunning on a lucky celebrity brand ambassador hitting the red carpet.

Think (Faux) Mink
Minklike outerwear was everywhere this season: Gucci’s faux-fur coats were weightless in person; and the shearling coats at Valentino, Phoebe Philo, and Toteme were so refined they might as well have been made of mink. The Row offered a rare taste of the real thing with this shaved mink coat.

The Thrifty Mix
Many collections were rooted in mixing, embracing personal style, and buying secondhand. Rather than head-to-toe looks, these are outfits that have been collected over time. Meryll Rogge’s first Marni outing, as well as Conner Ives’s latest, felt sourced directly from London charity shops.

Material Girl
Designers this season embraced a wealth of new materials to intrigue their fans and followers. The Row had a silk dress presented inside-out, so you could see the threads. At Dior, Jonathan Anderson used houndstooth on a top and slacks to make it look heavy—but in reality, it was an airy wisp of pleated silk. One of Loewe’s models appeared as though they were trapped in a wind tunnel, because the garment they wore was made of rubber.

The Women of Wall Street
Following multiple seasons of oversize menswear silhouettes, this season brought a slimmer fit—sharply tailored dark suits appeared at Saint Laurent, Gucci, and Tom Ford. A fresh take for fall could also be found in the styling elements, like hats, coats worn over the shoulders, and a wealth of pinstripes.

What’s Your Fetish?
Fall 2026 saw elements of “innocence” turned on their heads. Fetishwear crept into details like McQueen’s babydoll top, which was made of body armor. Meanwhile, one of Phoebe Philo’s dresses seemed to be uncovered in all the right places.

Fancy/Casual
A trend from spring 2026 we dubbed the “Statement Skirt, Simple Shirt” formula has morphed into a cheeky play on hodgepodge dressing. Designers are enamored with mixing evening pieces with casual, everyday staples. At Lii and Prada, for instance, sporty jackets were worn with little silk skirts and nubby knits. And Alaïa and Altuzarra paired their evening gowns with peacoats.

Big Animal Print Energy
Leopard, and cheetah, and zebra, oh my! Animal prints are officially back. We were especially taken with Balmain’s fierce coat, paired with over-the-knee boots and a ’90s bag.

Color Clash
Designers took mixing hues to the next level at Loewe, Akris, and more. It turns out, forest green goes with baby pink, navy blue, white and silver (if Mrs. Prada has anything to say about it). The so-called “sin” of pairing pink and orange, meanwhile, got flouted at Louis Vuitton, where models also wore taupe hats and yellow pumps.

Weather Alert!
There’s no doubt that we will need clothes for extreme temperatures in the near future. These are pieces designed to protect you from hurricanes, tornadoes, and other natural disasters. At Saint Laurent, trenches came in thick swaths of oxblood PVC, and Junya Watanabe’s gilded gown had many uses against the end of the world.

Princess and the Pink
This year marks the 20th anniversary of Sofia Coppola’s film Marie Antoinette, and we have a feeling more than a few designers were inspired by pastel vibes and let-them-eat-cake excess. Valentino’s Alessandro Michele put lavender and pale pink on a lace evening gown, while Conner Ives’s rosy dress looks just like the one Gwyneth Paltrow wore to the Oscars in 1999.

Indie Sleaze Redux
The 2010s are back, 7 For All Mankind designer Nicola Brognano proclaimed with his fall 2026 collection. The creative director’s first outing for the aughts brand centered a Y2K sensibility, and a character loosely based on stars like Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, and Lindsay Lohan. “She’s a rebel, she’s a rich girl,” Brognano said of his muse for the season. “She can go out in the morning and come back the day after, wearing the same outfit, with a Starbucks cup in her hand and a bracelet from the club the night before.” Marc Jacobs’s take was ultraslim, and made the case for bringing back tights and leather shorts.

Big-Time Outerwear
Coats with bolder-than-bold shoulders, a jacket with a built-in muff—these pieces pushed outerwear to the limit. McQueen’s take on the trend manifested in the form of a feathered shrug worn with a sheer, lacy dress.

Barbie Ferreira captured hearts in Euphoria as the fan-fiction-writing Kat Hernandez, with a wardrobe full of latex minis, mesh tops, and Internet alter egos. Her off-screen style is just as, if not more, compelling.
Since earning household status on the hit HBO show, Ferreira has blossomed into her own on the red carpet. Like Kat, she embraces bold, often neon, colors and unexpected styling combinations, like a sheer layered corset worn with a floral skirt. There’s also a more glamorous, timeless side to Ferreira, perhaps best evidenced by the dramatic GapStudio ball gown by Zac Posen that she wore to the 2026 Oscars. Though Ferreira has since departed Euphoria, her career has kept her on the red carpet, with buzzy projects like Nope, Mile End Kicks, and the 2026 remake of cult classic Faces of Death.
Here, take in Ferreira’s best red carpet style from Euphoria until now.

Each season of Paris Fashion Week, folks of all stripes are faced with the same question: where should I stay? Luckily, we have found the answer in the heart of the French capital. Tucked off Rue de Bac in the 7th arrondissement is the elegant and historic boutique Hotel Montalembert.
Besides being perfectly located for the fashion shows—the Art Deco space is about an eight-minute walk from the Musée d’Orsay—Montalembert is also near some of the best restaurants, cafés, and shops Paris has to offer. We’re talking classics like Café de Flore, as well as newer restaurants including the Sant Ambroeus on Rue Saint-Benoît. (But you’ll fare best by trying the in-house Restaurant Montalembert, where you can dine on seabass carpaccio and spring ravioli with candied lemon.) Within walking distance from the five-star hotel is also a slate of intriguing shopping destinations, like the taxidermy and curiosities outpost Deyrolle and the luxe vintage store Preclothed.

The warm atmosphere of the hotel, which opened in 1926, makes you feel like you are staying at a friend’s Parisian apartment. There are breathtaking views of Saint-Germain-des-Prés and all the Haussmann-style buildings in the distance. Poke your head into the restaurant during breakfast or lunch and you’ll notice the room is full of local regulars enjoying not just the tasty menu, but also the hotel’s elegance and prestigious service. The whole vibe is quaint and private—the perfect luxury-boutique hotel feeling. The bedrooms and suites match the hotel’s elegance, striking a balance between heritage and modernity. Each time you step through the front doors, you can feel the charm and the history.

Because a sea of teddy bears wasn’t quite enough, Lisa took her 29th birthday celebrations to the actual sea. For her birthday weekend, the Blackpink star marked the occasion with a sunset beach setup that still delivered on style.
Leaning into to beachside style, Lisa wore a sheer mermaid bra that looked like it had artfully washed up on the shore behind her. Backed with a see-through crochet fabric, the piece was assembled with beachfront regalia, including conch shells, delicate beading, and even crystals that hung from the underwire. Down below, Lisa went a more formal route in a reflective ivory maxi skirt with ruching along the hips. She finished the look with natural hair and makeup choices.
@lalalalisa_m
It’s been several days of birthday festivities for Lisa. Last week, she rang in her 29th early with an adorable photo shoot that she shared to social media. Dressed in a body suit and hot pants from Unnamed NYC and Yeti-esque Moon boots by Jacquemus, posed for photos while surrounded by dozens of teddy bear plushies.
Lisa’s festivities for her 29th are decidedly pared-back compared to years past, when she’s embraced high-octane party fashion and extravagant nights out with friends. (She appears to have opted for an intimate, candle-lit gathering on the beach this year.) After all, who needs a packed party when you have the ocean—and a goddess moment to match.
@lalalalisa_mWhat’s the next best thing to celebrating your birthday among friends and family? At least for Lisa, it’s celebrating it among teddy bears; being surrounded by plush companions might even be better than real people, after all.The Blackpink star was in a cozy mood to mark her 29th birthday.

What’s the next best thing to celebrating your birthday among friends and family? At least for Lisa, it’s celebrating it among teddy bears; being surrounded by plush companions might even be better than real people, after all.
The Blackpink star was in a cozy mood to mark her 29th birthday. Instead of posting photos of full-blown fête, she opted for an art-directed photo shoot, nestled among nearly a dozen plush companions. Lisa, naturally, dressed the part, wearing a plunging cardigan and boy shorts from Unnamed NYC. Her top featured textured fringe along the neckline and sleeves, helping her blend seamlessly into the sea of bears.
She completed the look with Yeti-esque Moon boots by Jacquemus and clear-framed glasses. A smattering of bear-shaped accessories, from hair clips to delicate earrings, tied the theme together without.
@lalalalisa_m
Lisa is no stranger to making a spectacle out of her birthday style. In 2024, she rang in her 27th birthday in Bangkok, dressed to the nines. She wore Oscar de la Renta’s fully sequined “Wave Scallop” dress, bias-cut design lined with hundreds of flashy paillettes. She paired the show piece with a metallic Louis Vuitton nano speedy. Last year, Lisa was in the midst of promoting her turn in The White Lotus, which meant that her red carpet appearances doubled as birthday celebrations.
Lisa has done the high-glam birthday before, but this year she proved a cozier approach can get the job done. Turns out, a few good bears and a great outfit are all she really needs.

Across decades of shape-shifting pop, the Swedish singer has honed a wardrobe that feels as emotionally precise as her music.

Like her pulsating music, there’s a true heartbeat to Robyn’s fashion. Across decades of shape-shifting pop, the Swedish singer has honed a wardrobe that feels as emotionally precise as her music. On stage, she leans into a futuristic minimalism with sharp tailoring, sculptural silhouettes, flashes of metallic, and jolts of neon. She favors a comfortable shoe—whether that be sky-high platform sneakers or stompy go-go boots—to dance around in, some sort of stretchy contraption (either leggings or a sports bra), and is almost always rocking her signature icy blonde hair in a sharp, razor-cut bob. It’s a uniform built for release—where function meets feeling, and every look moves as hard as she does.
And on the red carpet, Robyn’s off-kilter style is just as distinct. She sidesteps convention in favor of unexpected textures, and silhouettes that your average celebrity wouldn’t dare to experiment with.
Here, 13 of Robyn’s best style moments from the stage and beyond.

Dua Lipa’s tourist style doesn’t play by the rules. The La Vacanza queen dials up the drama, even while sightseeing or checking out local spots. Her latest travel look is sure to make waves, too.
Out in Milan, the singer wore a cobalt blue wrap dress from Chloé’s pre-fall 2026 collection. She styled the ruched piece with a black statement belt, draped loosely over her hips, and an unexpected evening clutch. She wore a structured mini bag, also from Chloé, designed to look like a black swan. It features a sculpted, feather-like body with curved ridges and a sleek arched neck forming the handle, finished with a painted beak and glossy detailing.
Although Dua has always been a maximalist dresser, we couldn’t help but be reminded of Sarah Jessica Parker’s collection of bird-shaped purses during her time on Sex and the City. During the show’s original run, the character of Carrie Bradshaw famously cringed at a bejeweled swan-shaped clutch gifted to her by Mr. Big before coming around to avian baggage on And Just Like That... thanks to J.W. Anderson’s infamous pigeon clutch. Lipa’s black swan manages to cut the difference between the two bags, taking the shape of the former while opting for the less-gilded finish of the later. Perhaps Carrie would approve.
@dualipa@dualipa
Dua also continued to partake in the animal print renaissance during her stay in the Italian capital. She wore a black-and-white striped zebra coat, styling the topper with blue jeans, sleek shoes, and rectangular glasses.
Dua’s trip to Milan culminated at Bulgari’s Eclettica event, where she took in the jeweler’s latest high jewelry collection alongside the likes of Priyanka Chopra, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Anne Hathaway. For the occasion, the singer made the peekaboo bra trend gala-appropriate. She wore a custom Balmain dress by Antonin Tron, complete with a cut-out bust and a sleek black skirt.
When it comes to vacation dressing, Dua can do it all.

Sofia Richie is officially a mom of two. On March 25, the model and designer announced that she had welcomed her second child, a baby boy named Henry Cecil Grainge, with husband Elliot Grainge. She shared the news via Instagram with a photo of the little one wearing a blue onesie.
Richie unveiled her second pregnancy in October 2025, coinciding with the release of her epononymous fashion SRG. Richie, 27, and Grainge, 32, are already parents to daughter Eloise, 2, and tied the knot in 2023.
Charles Melton and Camille Summers-Valli

After months of maternity red carpet fashion, Ellie Goulding welcomed her second child, a baby girl, and first with boyfriend Beau Minniear in early March. Goulding is already a mom to son Arthur, 4, whom she shares with ex-husband Caspar Jopling.
“On Friday, I gave birth to a beautiful healthy baby girl. We are totally obsessed with her,” the singer said on her Instagram story. “It was fitting that I spent International Women's Day with her and the incredible female team at St Mary's, who provided me and my baby with extraordinary care and kindness. I will always be in awe of midwives.”

The love story continues for Love Story star Paul Anthony Kelly. Amid his turn as JFK Jr., the actor and model confirmed that he and his wife, Syd Widziszewski-Kelly, had welcomed their first child together.
Kelly and Widziszewski-Kelly got married in 2023, but have largely kept their relationship out of the public eye. “One year ago we tied the proverbial knot and since that day I have been the happiest and healthiest I think I’ve ever been. I love you more than words will ever do justice. To several lifetimes more,” Kelly wrote on the anniversary of their wedding.
Meghan Trainor and Daryl Sabara have grown their family. On January 18, the couple—who share sons, Riley, 4, and Barry, 2—welcomed their daughter, Mikey Moon, via surrogate.
"Our baby girl Mikey Moon Trainor has finally made it to the world thanks to our incredible, superwoman surrogate,” Trainor announced in an Instagram post. “We are forever grateful to all the doctors, nurses, teams who made this dream possible. We had endless conversations with our doctors in this journey and this was the safest way for us to be able to continue growing our family.”

Actor Ansel Elgort is adding “dad” to his resume. On January 13, sources confirmed to People that Elgort had welcomed a son into the world. At the time, details surrounding the child had not been made public, but in Fenruary the actor provided a look into his new life.
"Fatherhood is exhilarating, exhausting, it’s everything and more. The present feels more present and the future brighter," Elgort said on Instagram. "He wakes us up all night and yet I’ve never felt stronger during the day. He goes from crying to laughing, expressing everything he feels and it’s freed me to do the same."

When it comes to the red carpet, Camila Morrone has found her footing in a look that’s equal parts siren and minimalist. The actor has honed a fashion sensibility defined by a cool, restrained hand, one that fuses clean lines with a trace of old Hollywood softness. That’s not to say Morrone shies away from bombshell codes.
Perhaps that’s because she first emerged as a model, working for Victoria’s Secret and Calvin Klein. Though, she’s since reinvented herself as an actress with her breakthrough role in Daisy Jones & the Six. Next, she’ll star in the Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen, a buzzy horror series executive produced by Stranger Things’s The Duffer Brothers. Later in the year, she’ll appear in the streamer’s hotly anticipated adaptation of Edith Wharton’s classic The Age of Innocence.
On the red carpet, she’s long embraced a touch of risk: bias-cut slips, body-skimming silhouettes, lace, underwear-baring skirts. She often turns to Gucci (by Demna) and Atelier Versace for her more overtly bombshell moments. For a quieter kind of luxury, she gravitates toward the polished elegance of Carolina Herrera, Gabriela Hearst, and Chanel. Here, take in the very best of Morrone’s red carpet style.

After a fashion month marked by an unprecedented wave of designer debuts, the resort and spring 2026 campaigns have landed, delivering a jolt of new energy as the world’s biggest houses unveil the visuals that will shape their next chapters. The aesthetic reset began early, with Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez’s fresh-faced first teaser for Loewe, lensed by Talia Chetrit, introducing an intimate point of view. Sarah Burton’s sophomore “Portrait Series” followed, featuring legendary punk musician and artist Paul Simonon alongside longtime friend of the house, Rooney Mara, in a suite of striking, spare photos that spotlight personality over polish. At Celine, Michael Rider launched a full-on charm offensive with “Infinite Possibilities,” a joyful array of images and video celebrating the house’s Charms collection in a deliberately maximal, more-is-more spirit. Ahead, all of the must-see campaigns setting the tone for 2026.

Instinctive collisions of attitude are at the center of Prada’s Days of Summer 2026 collection. Bella Hadid, Damson Idris, Louis Partridge, and Liu Wen lay on the pristine sand of an oasis. But all is not as it seems, and the chaos of the city sneaks in—it is inescapable.

The juxtaposition continues in the wardrobe. Tailored trousers gather sand, while elegant heels are tossed haphazardly aside. There is no room for preciousness here. These clothes were meant to be enjoyed and worn, however one pleases.
Nonfiction

Nonfiction debuts two new chypre eau de parfums to celebrate the start of spring: Dew & Light and Tears in Rain. Created in collaboration with perfumer Yann Vasnier, the scents evoke the clarity of early morning air and a forest after rainfall, respectively.

For the corresponding campaign, Nonfiction enlisted New York–based creative duo Commission, Jin Kay and Dylan Cao, for their first art direction project outside of their own brand. In the images, scents are paired with fresh faces from New York, a new territory for Nonfiction, which opened a store in the city—its first outside of Asia—last month.
The brand’s founder, Haeyoung Cha, said the campaign aims to explore “the contrasting moods” of the two different fragrances, adding that this project “introduces a bolder, more evocative approach to scent storytelling.”
“Commission has always lived in the space between restraint, desire, and longing, and that’s exactly the energy we brought to Nonfiction,” Kay and Cao said in a statement. “We wanted the campaign to feel like a moment you can’t quite place but can’t forget, almost like the feeling of a memory that hasn’t fully surfaced yet.”
Gucci

Demna continues his exploration of the characters that reside within his Gucci universe. Generation Gucci focuses on a collective of individuals who, together, embody the new generation of the house.

Eighty-four images make up the campaign, each photo showing off one look. Elements from Gucci’s history are combined to create a new outlook for the brand. Equestrian prints reference archival scarves and the Jack 1961 is reimagined. There is a reverence for the past combined with a determination to push forward.

Marc Jacobs has enlisted Rachel Sennott to both write and star in its latest campaign. Titled “The Scene,” the project merges fashion, film, and entertainment to debut Marc Jacobs’s newest accessory: The Scene Bag.

Sennott is joined by an all-star cast of Francesca Scorsese, True Whitaker, and Sandra Bernhard. The famous faces make cameos throughout the video as Sennott races around NYC in an attempt to secure an invite to the Met Gala at any cost.
“This campaign is about all the chaotic, ridiculous, and funny moments that make you feel seen or completely invisible,” Sennott says. “I wanted to capture that energy through storytelling that feels true to how we live now. The collection reflects that same spirit with pieces that move with you and let you show up however you want.”

Nicole Kidman, Lily-Rose Depp, Pedro Pascal, and Ayo Edebiri make up the A-list cast of models who stepped in front of Craig McDean’s camera for Chanel’s latest eyewear campaign.

Each star dons a pair of eyeglasses and sunglasses. Kidman cheekily peeks over her shades, while the prescription frames lend the actor a sense of wisdom. Similarly, Edebiri is every bit the Hollywood star in her retro sunglasses; the square lenses lend a demure look.

A closer inspection of the new offerings reveals the stars’ dedication to Chanel house codes. Rose-Depp’s glasses feature a bold, two-toned arm, decorated with a rhinestone double C. Pascal’s, meanwhile, display the word “Chanel,” so there is no question of the brand he is sporting.

Moncler doesn’t necessarily come to mind when one thinks of summer, but the brand is working to change that. Welcome Puffy Summer, a new collection that offers lighter takes on the brand’s signature puffers, perfect for seasonal weather shifts.

Actor Jamie Dornan stars in the Puffy Summer campaign, showing off the collection’s system of lightweight layers and eye-catching colors.
“There’s something really interesting about taking what Moncler’s known for and shifting it into summer,” Dornan says in a statement. “You still get that sense of warmth and puffiness, just in a lighter, more relaxed way. The whole campaign has this real sense of joy and playfulness.”

Loewe’s collaboration with Paula’s Ibiza returns, once again celebrating the vibrancy of summer with easy and playful pieces that highlight the craft of basketry and crochet.

Images shot by Jack Pierson illustrate the versatility of the collection, placing it both on the beach and in the city. There is an emphasis on the natural world and its influence on the collection, but also the unstaged seduction of a summer spent in town.

The spotlight is on Miu Miu’s leather goods in a new campaign for the brand—though Gigi Hadid is not to be ignored. The model stars in images shot by Steven Meisel, and she is a lone figure in a primary-color world.

Hadid sits in a quintessential bourgeois apartment, flanked by doors loosely painted green, blue, and red. This conventional environment is transformed with the use of color, which is reflected in Hadid’s accessories. The Arcadie and Wander bags from the Italian brand are never far from the model. Also rendered in bright hues, they’re the perfect representation of Miu Miu’s technique and craft.

They say you can tell a lot about a person from their shoes, but really, it’s one’s bag that provides a true peek into their psyche. Someone who carries around a petite top-handle is very different from the gal who always has a stuffed tote on hand. In Gucci’s latest campaign, the brand explores this relationship between a person and their bag, considering the accessory as more than just an object, but a form of personal representation.

“Beauty and the Bag” stars Kate Moss and Emily Ratajkowski, with each woman toting their respective purse. Moss gets the Borsetto, in its range of colors and sizes, while Ratajkowski tosses the Giglio over her shoulder.

Kylie Minogue fans, rejoice. Thanks to Chanel, the Australian pop star has reunited with French director Michel Gondry for the first time since 2002, when the pair worked on Minogue’s “Come Into My World” music video. And this time, fellow Aussie, Margot Robbie, is joining in on the fun.

It’s all in the name of the Chanel 25 bag, which has proven to be a fan favorite since its launch last year. Now, Chanel is focusing on the mini version of the purse and its many colorways and materials.

In the video, directed by Gondry and set to “Come Into My World,” multiple versions of Robbie bop around a Parisian neighborhood, each one toting their own Chanel 25 mini. Minogue makes a cameo in the video, which mimics the cloning effect of the original, featuring multiple Robbies, each holding their own Chanel 25.

Prada’s spring 2026 campaign takes a surreal turn with I, I, I, I am… Prada., a second chapter that enlists artist Jordan Wolfson to reimagine the house’s latest collection through his uncanny lens. Featuring a cast that includes Carey Mulligan, Damson Idris, Hunter Schafer, and Nicholas Hoult, the project introduces digitally rendered, dreamlike figures that hover between companion and alter ego—blurring the line between subject and projection.

Wolfson, a New York–born artist who rose to prominence in the 2010s, is known for his unsettling work across video, animatronics, and virtual reality, often probing the darker edges of technology, violence, and pop culture. His controversial VR piece Real Violence, shown at the 2017 Whitney Biennial, cemented his reputation as one of the art world’s most provocative voices but with Prada he gets a bit more playful.

In a series of spare vignettes, the campaign’s stars repeat an almost bird-like call of “I, I, I, I am...” alongside Wolfson’s human-meet-avian creatures. Watch the full video below.

A new series from Rimowa highlights voices of the culture, giving them space to share personal stories while exploring the dedication and resilience required to master one’s craft. To kick off this new initiative, the luxury luggage brand has tapped Michelle Yeoh to star in episode one. There, we follow the Academy Award-winning actress as she receives the Honorary Golden Bear award at the 76th Berlin International Film Festival.

Fahy—along with her campaign co-stars—embodies what it means to “Be the Next.” There are those who follow and those who inspire, lead, and light the way for others. The Boss campaign stars fall into the latter category. In their tailored vests and cropped trench coats, they’re ready to break through and turn their self-belief into strength.
Burberry

How does one celebrate an icon like the Burberry trench? With the help of other icons, of course. In honor of the brand’s 170th anniversary—and Thomas Burberry’s invention of the weatherproof fabric gabardine in 1879—Daniel Lee has gathered icons of film, music, sport, and fashion to don iterations of the classic design.
Burberry

Twenty-three global stars were selected, including Kendall Jenner, Jack Draper, Matthew Macfadyen, Kate Moss, Kid Cudi, and Teyana Taylor. The result is a cast that extends across generations and talent, with each person bringing a different perspective to the coat.

Despite the large cast, there is a consistency among the photos, which were all shot by Tim Walker. Each star is depicted in black and white. And, of course, each wears the trench—but the little details (a pop of Taylor’s collar, the styling of Moss in sheer black tights and black leather pumps) show the versatility of the garment.

Chanel has updated its unisex sports watch, the J12. Along with unveiling a new signature style for the beloved classic, the brand has tapped two new faces for the accessory in Gisele Bündchen and Clément Chabernaud.

The J12 was first inspired by water and the element’s soothing and peaceful nature, combined with its capability for unlimited strength. In the new campaign, Bündchen highlights these features, navigating a sailboat through rough waters, while listening to the ocean and reflecting as she goes. She is at home in the South of France, gaining power from the water as she dives into the waves.
Coach

“Explore Your Story,” Coach’s spring campaign, is all about storytelling, and the communities that form around books and reading. The brand tapped six Gen Z icons and asked them to choose a book, turning each one into a mini charm to wear on their Tabby bags. Elle Fanning went with Sense & Sensibility by Jane Austen, while Storm Reid opted for I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou.

Fanning and Reid, along with the other global brand ambassadors, show off their choices in the spring campaign.

Nadia Lee Cohen shot Robyn for Acne Studios’s spring 2026 campaign, turning the singer into a modern James Dean. Robyn is dressed in a cotton uniform shirt and high-waist slacks as she stares down the camera like she’s looking to fight it. Just like her upcoming album, Sexistential, the images capture the sensual experience of being alive.

“I’ve always felt that when I wore long hair and dresses, it was like I was in drag—which of course can be both empowering and fun,” Robyn says in a statement about the campaign. “And this felt like another kind of drag. It was extremely satisfying to play around with—a way to project vulnerability and toughness at the same time, which is kind of my whole thing.”

Bride-to-be Gabriette is sharing her “Rules of Engagement” with Jimmy Choo. “Your ring should bling,” she says in the video that accompanies the campaign. “And if it doesn’t, upgrade.”

Dressed in Jimmy Choo’s 2026 bridal collection, as well as house signatures, Gabriette shares her requirements. “One pair of shoes is never enough.” She suggests at least four. Also, “Bags don’t have to be functional, just fun.”

BTS is back, which means we’ll see the K-pop group and its members everywhere soon enough—especially in the world of fashion. It’s no surprise, then, that Calvin Klein nabbed Jung Kook to front its spring 2026 denim campaign.

Jung Kook’s Mert Alas-shot campaign plays out in a series of settings. We see the boyband singer soak up inspiration in a record store, enjoy a seaside view from a glass-walled home, and vamp it up in studio. Together, Jung Kook and Alas take us on a denim journey, guided by their points of view and anchored by timeless CK denim.
Alaïa

Just like Pieter Mulier’s winter spring 2026 collection for Alaïa, the corresponding campaign, shot by Steven Meisel, is minimal, but still powerful. There is purity in the setting of the shots, allowing for the garments to hold the center of the image. The photos evoke a sense of nostalgia, but more significant is likely their ability to last.

Annie Leibovitz steps out from behind the camera to star in Sarah Burton’s latest campaign for Givenchy, joined by Kaia Gerber, artist Isabelle Albuquerque, and an array of models.

Collier Schorr is Burton’s chosen photographer once more, capturing images of women who represent the designer’s Givenchy. The shots are fairly simple, set in studio, and present these people as relaxed and comfortable in their garments. It’s a celebration of the clothing, of course, but also women’s joy.

The choice to include Leibovitz in the group blurs the lines of traditional roles. Who is the photographer? The muse? The model? Burton proves one can be all of these things and more.
Celine

This might be Celine’s summer 2026 campaign, but in many ways, it feels timeless. Perhaps that’s thanks to the freshness of Zoë Ghertner’s photography, or the bold pops of primary colors that break up the otherwise simple palette.

Despite the lack of a distinct setting, the campaign manages to still invoke feelings of summer. Chalk it up to the clothing: draped dresses, silk scarves, and poplin tops that feel light and easy. Wear them on a warm day without sacrificing style.

Balenciaga’s Heart and Body campaign is all about the creation of a new community—a fitting theme, considering the recent arrival of Pierpaolo Piccioli as the label’s creative director. With new brand ambassadors and friends of the house entering the fold, Piccioli is creating a clan centered around his Balenciaga.

New brand ambassadors Harris Dickinson and Winona Ryder, plus friend of the house Hudson Williams star in David Sims’s images, which were shot against a white background, allowing the individuals and clothing to speak for themselves.

“I chose individuals, not characters,” Piccioli says in a statement. “Human beings with distinct stories, faces marked by experience, vulnerability, and nuance. I was not looking for constructed personas, but for real presence. At the center of summer 2026 is the creation of a new community—different, yet connected by shared values: respect, sensitivity, strength, freedom. Not sameness, but resonance.”

Chloë Sevigny kicks off her tenure as 7 For All Mankind’s newest ambassador with a campaign. The actress showcases the brand’s spring 2026 offerings in a sunlit home, where photographer Brianna Capozzi’s lens captures Sevigny in her best denim.

DKNY

For spring 2026, DKNY is expanding its ongoing exploration of fame as an art form. Fittingly, the brand has once again tapped one of the most famous faces of the moment, Hailey Bieber, to front the campaign.
DKNY

Inspired by the art scene in 1960s downtown New York, the campaign finds Bieber in an artist’s loft effortlessly dressed in canvas coats, pinstripe blazers, and tailored pants. In some shots, she forgoes a top—in others, pants. But almost always present is a monotone New York Yankees hat created in collaboration with the team and DKNY.
Dior

Yes, we are all focused on Jonathan Anderson’s Dior at the moment, but what about Victoire de Castellane’s Dior Joaillerie? The Parisian has been creating masterpieces as the artistic director of Dior jewelry since 1998, and she returns once again with another collection, this time defined by simplicity and grace.
Dior

The latest collection was inspired by 18th-century France, a time dear to the house of Dior. Chains filled with mother-of-pearl medallions and double-layered earrings provide personal touches to each outfit. Dior ambassador Mia Goth, for example, layers up three necklaces of varying lengths, while Ever Anderson dons a bib of pendants. The pieces, with their pops of color and star motifs, are both whimsical and classic, perfect for the narrative of Anderson’s Dior.

Simone Bellotti follows up his debut collection for Jil Sander with its corresponding campaign, which asks the question, “Is it possible to take away while adding a personal signature?”
Jil Sander

The photos act as a study of opposites—protection and exposure, strength and vulnerability. Set against stark blue and white backdrops in studio, there is a sense of intimacy, but also distance. We are invited in—to a point.
Jil Sander

“A curiosity for the body is what I am after,” says Bellotti in a statement. “Posture and gesture as ways of communicating, clothes that invite to get close, that hide and reveal. Rationality and feelings.”
Chloé

The Chloé summer 2026 campaign follows the path of the sun. The shifting light and mood of the day act as the backdrop for the Sam Rock-shot images, a journey that embarks amid the first glow of sunrise and ends in the golden warmth of the sunset.
Chloé

The images feel inherently Chloé: feminine, light, carefree. The models stroll the beach in their ruffled skirts and draped dresses, the hem of trench coats dragging along the sand. They maneuver the boardwalk in heels and floral dresses and accessorize with oversized earrings and nothing else. One wants to join the group just as much as they want to sit back and observe. There is a sense of spontaneity that should not be disturbed.
Chloé

“I wanted to capture the rhythm of a summer day, the changing light, the warmth of the sun, and the feeling of slipping into a natural flow,” says Chloé creative director, Chemena Kamali. “A day in nature where every sense sharpens revealing a radiance and spontaneity that have always been at the heart of Chloé.”

The French luxury house continues its yearlong celebration of the iconic Monogram with a new campaign. Shot by Glen Luchford and directed by Roman Coppola, the ads feature LV ambassadors and friends of the house Zendaya, Catherine Deneuve, Liu Yifei, and Hoyeon. The group pays tribute to 130 years of fine craftsmanship, style, and innovation. First up, Zendaya brings back the Speedy bag, a 1930s creation that received its Monogram stamp in 1959.

While the sun sets on Burch’s dreamy property, the wrinkled lamé of a button-down catches the light and wrap-around sunglasses protect the models’ eyes. Tomorrow, they will wake up, put on their sequin-adorned low pumps, grab their Romy bucket bag, and do it all again.
Giorgio Armani

The spring 2026 Giorgio Armani campaign invites viewers into the late designer’s Milan home, which is still inhabited by his right-hand man and business partner, Leo Dell’Orco. The images, taken by Oliver Pearch at the Via Borgonuovo residence, celebrate a return to brand origins and evoke a sense of continuity in the spirit of the designer’s legacy. Vittoria Ceretti and Clément Chabernaud star in the photos, which take place throughout the abode, both indoors and among the manicured gardens. The models showcase the brand’s newest offerings while surrounded by Armani’s personal objects, his favorite works of art, and his furniture—the pieces that inspired him every day. Portraits of Armani by Andy Warhol and Francesco Clemente act as backdrops for the models. The resulting images can be seen as a metaphor. While the Armani brand pushes forward, it will never forget its legacy, and the man who started it all.
Burberry

Burberry’s summer 2026 campaign is all about the relationship between fashion and music. The images celebrate the spirit of live performance and music’s ability to transform and inspire all who come in contact with it.

The photos evoke the energy of the U.K. music scene. The models—including the legend herself, Twiggy—could easily be concertgoers, stage managers, or artists ready to hit the stage.

Proenza Schouler has revealed its first campaign under new creative director Rachel Scott. While Scott doesn’t make her debut until later in February during the New York Fashion Week fall 2026 season, the designer consulted on the brand’s spring 2026 collection and spearheaded its subsequent campaign.
Proenza Schouler

Proenza Schouler is now a woman’s world, thanks to Scott. That fact is made clear in the campaign, which was actualized by a team of women. We enter model Caitlin Soetendal’s world as she laughs and broods, lounges and contemplates. There are contradictions in her demeanor, but that makes her portrayal of womanhood all the more realistic.
Versace

Why have one photographer when you can have three? For its spring/summer 2026 campaign, Versace enlisted three creatives to capture Dario Vitale’s first and only collection for the brand.
Versace

Tania Franco Klein, Frank Lebon, and Steven Meisel all shared their take on Vitale’s work, with Meisel opting for arguably the most confrontational, literally laying out the clothes for the viewers’ pleasure. There’s a sensuality to the images—which features models strewn on top of each other on the floor—that is native to Versace.
Versace

Lebon’s depiction is more cinematic. The images feel like stills from a movie, a moment captured in time. Finally, Klein adds some mystery to the campaign, eschewing faces altogether, focusing instead on color, texture, and feeling.
Re/Done

Kaia Gerber has officially joined Re/Done as an investor and creative partner in a role where she will work closely with the leadership and design teams across the denim brand in shaping its strategy, collection development, and storytelling. Her first task under the new job was the creation of the brand’s spring 2026 campaign, starring Gerber alongside model Secret Snow.

Gerber has long been a fan of Re/Done, making the appointment a natural fit. “The brand represents a lifestyle rooted in authenticity, individuality, and timeless style,” she said in a statement. “I’ve loved being part of its journey.”

For the campaign starring Snow, Gerber actually did the casting. “I’m excited to help shape what comes next—creating products and stories that feel personal, intentional, and deeply connected to today’s generation,” Gerber added.

Miu Miu’s spring 2026 campaign takes place indoors, but nature still remains an integral part of every image. Shot throughout the day, from dawn until dusk, the photographs show moody shadows, or else a room awash with orange light.

Singer and songwriter Olivia Rodrigo stars in the campaign shot by Jamie Hawkesworth. And like the setting, which toes a line between the indoor and outdoor, the wardrobe represents an aesthetic that straddles industrial and feminine. A crocheted apron tops an oversize, wool quarter-zip, while a sturdy leather coat is layered over a sweater embroidered with jewels.

Rodrigo and the rest of the cast stoically stare down the camera in some shots, while letting emotion reign in others. The result is a set of images encompassing a space somewhere between the wild and civil—and frivolity and functionality.

Love is in the air at Tiffany & Co. this Valentine’s Day, specifically between house ambassador Adria Arjona and her adoring (faux) husband. The actress stars in Tiffany’s V-day short film, playing a wife getting showered in compliments (and diamonds) by her partner.

In the film, Arjona wears a HardWear by Tiffany graduated necklace and matching earrings and bracelet, as well as a Tiffany Setting engagement ring. The classic, wearable pieces play into the narrative of the campaign—sometimes, the greatest love stories are often the ones we live every day.

And is there a more perfect opportunity to launch this new campaign than ahead of Valentine’s Day? The brand’s V-day collection takes center stage in the Our Calvins campaign, modeled by Tell Me Lies stars (and real-life couple) Grace Van Patten and Jackson White.

Apple Martin returns as the face of another Self-Portrait campaign, this time starring in images that are unquestionably rawer than anything we’ve seen from the brand in recent years.

While Self-Portrait is known for its feminine designs with a tilt toward sparkle and sequins, the dresses Martin models are minimal. She’s pictured in the water in upstate New York, dressed in soft laces and airy chiffons, all white and beige. It represents an evolution for the brand, but also for young Martin.
Bottega Veneta

Bottega Veneta’s summer 2026 campaign is set among the streets and landmarks of Venice, Italy. The images both honor the house’s roots in the northeastern Italian city, and introduce a new chapter under creative director Louise Trotter.

Eye-catching details and luscious textures found in the various palazzos, gardens, and shops are mirrored in Trotter’s debut collection. The clothing is in conversation with these structures, as well as the art and culture housed in each one.
Loro Piana’s spring 2026 collection is on display in the brand’s latest campaign—and so is Saint-Paul-de-Vence, a village in the heart of Provence, France, where photographer Mario Sorrenti captured models parading around the town’s landmarks.
Loro Piana

The Colombe d’Or and the Fondation Maeght act as backdrops, as models play cards by the hotel’s pool and take a break against the red brick of the museum. These establishments have long represented gathering places for friends, family, and artists, and in this campaign, they still hold that role.
The collection feels at home among the art, against a Marc Chagall fresco or the Joan Miró Labyrinth fountain. Vibrant hues and sophisticated patterns adorn the models, who complement the environment (and the Alberto Giacometti sculptures).

Many consider Madonna to be “the one”—the number-one pop diva, cultural icon, performer, and so much more. So it’s only fitting for Dolce & Gabbana to tap her to star in its new monumental campaign celebrating 20 years of The One perfume. In the images, the singer (who has a long history of working with D&G) lays atop Cuban actor Alberto Guerra on a bed with satin sheets. The shots, as well as a corresponding short film, are a celebration of tradition and reinvention, as the campaign coincides with the launch of new takes on the classic fragrance.

Gucci’s La Famiglia is back. After unveiling an array of well-dressed personalities for his first collection for the brand in September, Demna is returning to these opulent tropes for the Gucci: La Famiglia campaign.

Those who have been following Demna’s Gucci will recognize the group. Once again, there stands “Incazzata” in her ’60s-style coat and silk scarf-wrapped head. “The V.I.C.,” meanwhile (or Very Important Client) is logo’d-up, head-to-toe in the house’s double-G monogram. Each character is distinct, with a unique style and persona, but together, they embody the legacy of a brand entering a new era.

Over 20 years after its debut in the Saint Laurent spring 2002 collection, the Mombasa bag is back, this time in three sizes. Bella Hadid, who has been seen carrying the original in the past, is leading the campaign, introducing an updated version of the iconic accessory.

The new iteration includes all the elements we love about the original—the natural slouch, which allows for an effortless look, plus the perfectly designed leather shoulder strap for easy carrying. It already has Bella’s approval, and will no doubt show up on the shoulders of other It girls very soon.

While much of the world is being inundated with AI advertisements and digitally enhanced images, Prada is looking in a different direction. For the brand’s spring 2026 campaign, Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons have tasked American artist Anne Collier to execute a portfolio of images that challenges the idea of the usual fashion campaign in the digital age.

Collier’s work jumps off the screen, showing qualities of a physical object. Disembodied hands hold up the images, shot by Oliver Hadlee Pearch, allowing for a new perspective. Sometimes bare, sometimes donning silk gloves, the hands allow the photos to exist on a new plane, while simultaneously creating a story. Who is this person admiring the photos?

While the handler remains anonymous, the models they’re admiring are anything but unknown. Hunter Schafer, Nicholas Hoult, Carey Mulligan, and Damson Idris, among others, pose for the camera—and the viewer’s pleasure.

Jonathan Anderson debuted his vision for Dior over the course of two shows last year, dividing each collection into men’s and women’s. But for the spring 2026 campaign, the complete world of Anderson’s Dior is finally coming together.

In the David Sims-shot images, Anderson’s Dior walks the line between reality and performance. There is a pomp to the clothes and their compositions: sweaters flare out into capes, and lace dresses explode backward into gravity-defying bows. The models lounge, dance, and vamp it up just so.

Greta Lee leads the charge, followed by actors Louis Garrel and Paul Kircher, models Laura Kaiser and Saar Mansvelt, and footballer Kylian Mbappé. After walking in the Dior women’s show in October, Nicole Kidman’s daughter, Sunday Rose, also returns in the ads. The people morph into new characters in their Dior digs; they’re simultaneously themselves, but also a heightened, newer version.

Back in September, Charli attended Anthony Vaccarello’s show in Paris wearing the same red jacket and lace shorts from the campaign. She matched Hailey Bieber, Zoë Kravitz, and Rosé in the front row. Now, though, Charli is showing off the pieces solo, in a campaign shot by Glen Luchford.
Originally presented on the runway, the Celine charms allow for a unique form of personal expression, with pieces to be worn however the owner desires—on bracelets or necklaces, as brooches, or dangling off a bag, of course.

We’re four months into the year, and already, the social calendar is full up. Brands are wasting no time breaking out the champagne and hors d’oeuvres, fueled by awards season, new collaborations, or the simple desire to throw a great bash. Fêtes are taking place all over the world in honor of award nominees, fresh launches, the Olympics, fashion month, and every other reason imaginable. It’s all just an excuse to have a wonderful time. And while you might not be invited to the biggest parties in town, you can still enjoy them vicariously. Keep checking back here as we cover the best and brightest events of the year—and their A-list attendees.

It was not your average book club on April 28, when friends of Valentino gathered together at the Marciano Art Foundation in Los Angeles. This was a high-fashion evening, though the reason for the event was a book. The night was dedicated to the launch of Specula Mundi by Mark Borthwick, the new haute couture tome with a visual narrative that reinterprets the collection of the same name by Alessandro Michele.

Patricia Arquette, Maude Apatow, Sombr, and more stars were in attendance, dressed in their Valentino best. Those who missed the presentation of the collection in Paris last January were transported there thanks to a Kaiserpanorama installation on-site.

The hottest accessory of the evening was, of course, Specula Mundi, produced in a limited edition of 1,500 numbered copies. A close runner-up was the new Valentino Garavani Devain bag, held by Arquette and Apatow, among others.

On April 28, the arts nonprofit Creative Time invited New York's art and fashion worlds into the Russian Tea Room for its 2026 gala. Over borscht and vodka, guests celebrated the organization's new Executive Director, Jean Cooney, and honored artists Guadalupe Maravilla, Molly Gochman, and philanthropist Michelle Coffey. Co-chaired by stylist Kate Young, designer Waris Ahluwalia, and Nordstrom, the night was unexpectedly full of Russian bears. Waiters dressed as polar bears toted bottles of vodka while guests—from artists Kara Walker and Chloe Wise to designers Daniella Kallmeyer, Wes Gordon, and Henry Zankov—mingled around a giant bear-shaped ice sculpture. The night ended late, with dancing to sets by Leigh Lezark of The Misshapes and Jean d'Armes.
Gala season in New York City is officially in full swing. Apex for Youth—an organization that mentors and supports underserved Asian and immigrant youth in NYC—hosted its annual fete on April 16 at Cipriani South Street. The event drew over 600 guests and raised nearly $3.7 million for the nonprofit, which offers health-focused programming, education, and community engagement via volunteers. Olympic champion Eileen Gu, shown here with Michael Chung, attended the event, along with actress Lana Condor, who received honors.

“The Inspiration Awards Gala is one of the few moments where you can see the full ecosystem of Apex in one room—our youth, mentors, supporters, and partners,” executive director of Apex for Youth Jiyoon Chung told W. “It’s powerful because the impact is tangible. You’re not just hearing about change—you’re witnessing the relationships and community that make it possible.” That sentiment proved true when Avantika Vandanapu, pictured here, presented Condor her award onstage.

Of course, the dinnertime auction is as key for a gala as the starry guest list. During the evening, guests like Kim Shui—photographed here with Chloe Misseldine and Isiah Magsino—Sandy Liang, Dao-Yi Chow, and many other New York City insiders helped raise nearly $4 million for Apex for Youth.

Next up on April 15 was The Bronx Museum of the Arts, which held its annual gala at Tribeca Rooftop this year. Artist Awol Erizku, cultural patron Lois Plehn, and designer and artist Colm Dillane (aka KidSuper)—pictured here with The Bronx Museum’s director and chief curator, Shamim M.

Alex Consani may be known as a downtown fashion darling, but on Friday, April 10, the model traveled to Times Square for a party celebrating the acclaimed artist Tomokazu Matsuyama’s latest work. Along with Lulu Tenney, Hank Willis Thomas, and many more art-world stars, Consani feted Matsuyama’s new piece, Morning Again, with a soirée that began at the Times Square EDITION and ended on the Red Steps—where Consani joined Matsuyama to watch the project illuminate Times Square.

Commissioned by the Times Square Arts Midnight Moment program, Morning Again will screen nightly from April 1-30 from 11:57 PM to midnight, on nearly 100 electronic billboards in Times Square.

On the afternoon of Wednesday, March 26, Movado toasted its latest chapter at New York’s King restaurant, where brand president Margot Grinberg hosted a seated lunch along with ambassador Julianne Moore. The gathering marked the debut of three new women’s watch collections—Museum Bangle, Heritage 1917, and Museum Velura—as well as the official launch of Curve, Movado’s newest high-fashion jewelry collection. All were showcased alongside archival designs.

“I’ve always admired Movado for its clean, modern aesthetic and its ability to create pieces that feel both timeless and deeply personal,” said Moore. “These new collections are beautifully crafted and thoughtfully designed—a true reflection of the brand’s artistry and its commitment to celebrating women.”

On March 18 in Manhattan’s Union Square neighborhood, Dua Lipa descended upon the new Nespresso flagship boutique on 5th Avenue. Wearing a white minidress and a stunning Serpenti necklace, the singer toasted her status as the coffee brand’s latest global ambassador. Guests sipped on espresso martinis (like DJ Mia Moretti, above) and plucked tuna crispy rice bites from geometric blocks held by the waitstaff. As the sun set outside, the crowd trooped downstairs for more dancing.

Meanwhile, farther uptown at The Pool/The Grill, art-world luminaries gathered to celebrate the 16th annual Art Production Fund gala. The event—which supports the organization’s work of commissioning and producing public art projects—raised a record-breaking $1 million. More than 300 guests including Chloe Wise and Brooke Wise, along with gallerista Hannah Traore (shown above) attended, decked out in fashion that reflected the theme of the night: après ski at the “APF Chalet.”

Spring brings countless galas to New York City, but we’re pretty sure there’s only one where you’ll find the city’s premiere “experimental clown” performing as one of artist Paul McCarthy’s famed butt plugs and donors will get called “pay pigs.” Welcome to Performance Space New York’s annual spring gala, where this year, the best way to do some good was to be very, very bad.
Playwright Jordan Tannahill, fresh off his off-Broadway success Prince Faggot, stepped into the role of creative director and reimagined a kink-friendly gala with a “Haute Fetish” dress code that that meant black leather was more common than black tie. This year’s gala honored fashion’s Michèle Lamy, artist McCarthy, and writer Samuel R. Delany, all creatives who no one has ever accused of being prudes. Naturally, Tannahill called in former dominatrix Julia Fox and her BFF, the photographer and model Richie Shazam, to cohost. Dressed as a gala table to open the night, Fox reminded the crowd this was a kink-friendly event. She pulled up comedian Julio Torres onstage to interrogate him about his favorite kink. “A memorable, entertaining night supporting the arts,” he demurred.

Right as the elevator doors were about to close and take us to the fifth floor of the WSA building for Free Arts NYC’s 26th Annual Gala, none other than Rosie Perez slipped in. There’s no better omen for a good night in the city than starting it with an accidental run-in with one of its cultural icons. Once inside, we were greeted with a glass of red wine and gallery walls full of 70 works on paper by a who’s-who of art-world notables, including Tschabalala Self, KAWS, Will Cotton, and Marilyn Minter. They would all be auctioned off that night through an online portal to benefit the nonprofit. Even New York’s new first lady, Rama Duwaji, donated a sketch.
Founded in 1997, Free Arts NYC provides kids from underserved communities with both daylong creative workshops for younger artists and more in-depth mentorship and scholarship programs for teenage artists.

This year’s edition honored three women from three different generations: artists Katherine Bradford and Sasha Gordon, and Jody Quon, creative director of New York magazine. Yet the three didn’t just show up to collect their adoration on gala night. Earlier in the year, the trio stopped by to both offer advice and create alongside Free Arts students. The results—“exquisite corpse”-style drawings—were also on display.
“Free Arts is planting seeds of curiosity that will undeniably make this world more beautiful,” Quon said upon accepting her award. “We are not just investing in children’s art. We are investing in the next generation of thinkers, makers, leaders, and dreamers.”

This was the rare gala for an arts foundation in which the act of creation literally took center stage. Artist Adam Dressner had set up an easel to paint live portraits of guests during both the cocktail hour and after party. At dinner, guests were provided with colored pencils and encouraged to draw on the table by Free Arts founder Liz Hopfan. Paper had been placed over some windows, with crayons provided to encourage guests to leave a doodle. “A sketch is a funny thing,” she told the crowd. “We tend to think of it as lesser, the thing before the thing. But a sketch is where we are all most honestly ourselves. It's a color test, a first instinct, a page that was never meant to be seen. This is where Free Arts lives, too.”

Comité Colbert presents “the most exclusive exhibition on French luxury held in New York,” at The Shed from May 26 to 31. Hidden Treasures, 250 Years of Franco-American Luxury Stories brings together over 65 French luxury maisons and cultural institutions, along with their never-before-seen American archives. Together, these pieces illustrate two-and-a-half centuries of friendship between France and the United States, and the role luxury has played in that relationship.
Each luxury brand is represented by one singular artifact, and together, a story is told about two countries and their cultural dialogue. Hidden Treasures explores the diplomacy, identity, and popular culture shared across the Atlantic. Jewelry, hotels, fragrance, liquor, and more are all represented in the exhibition, which attempts to portray the universal language of beauty. Christofle tableware from the Normandie collection and a Louis Vuitton trunk represent the luxury of cross-Atlantic travel. A 1933 gown designed by Cristóbal Balenciaga and worn by American socialite Mona von Bismarck exemplifies the influence of French couture on American style. Pieces from Berluti, Hermès, Chanel, and more luxury brands add to the narrative. A Celine scarf printed with U.S. Mail iconography and a Christian Louboutin heel inspired by Cinderella’s glass slipper, meanwhile, proves that inspiration flows both ways.
French ceramist Emmanuel Boos is bringing his glazed porcelain practice to NYC with his first solo show in the United States. A “glaze consultant” for Hermès and the recipient of the “Special Mention” award at the 2024 Loewe Foundation Craft Prize, Boos has long boasted a transatlantic career. But this show, Noir C’est Noir, takes border-jumping to a new level. From April 9, Raisonné will host over 70 of Boos’s unique works, including coffee tables, side tables, stools, vases, and other objects. Together, these pieces illustrate Boos’s distinct style and exploration of fragile beauty and humorous practicality.
Boos’s porcelain practice allows him to embrace imperfection and welcome the unexpected, which he calls “happy accidents.” Also important to the process is Boos’s arrangement of his work within a space. There’s a modular aspect to this practice, with pieces grouped into various unfixed cohorts. This provides a reflection of the artist’s own nomadic life, and his closely held belief that meaning always exceeds function. “My practice of glaze does not aim for mastery nor domination,” the artist said in a statement. “I wish to slip into the glaze and develop a friendly relationship with chaos and eventually trust chance. It is emotion, sensuality, poetry.”

In his debut solo show, Hard Feelings, Palestinian-American photographer Dean Majd chronicles a decade of brotherhood, grief, gore, and glory. As a young boy, the Queens, New York-born artist was often left alone, with only a camera in his hand to document his loved ones. But the sudden passing of a childhood friend in 2015 thrust him back into the nocturnal and hypermasculine graffiti and skate scenes, where the odyssey of Hard Feelings begins.
Driven by devastating loss and a desire to record truth, Majd captures deeply intimate portraits, demanding reflection and healing. In early imagery like geri on the hellgate bridge or bohemian rhapsody, risk and bliss alike appear in ritual and full force, from a young man undergoing a rite of passage, to friends sharing a hotel tub. The trust between Majd and his community is palpable, offering his sitters and viewers the opportunity to confront self-destruction head on. Brutality and tenderness unfolds as Majd’s community allows him to lens aftermaths of self-harm, abuse, and death. As both participant and observer, the artist’s visual language is unflinching and profoundly empathetic. Notably, Hard Feelings begins and ends with celebrations of life. —Ayesha Le Breton

The worlds of sporting and art combine in a series of works on display now at Gagosian’s Beverly Hills gallery. Over the past two decades, American artist Jonas Wood has turned prominent tennis matches into works of art, depicting these on-court battles in oil and acrylic paintings. The works are uniform in their vantage point, with each placing the viewer behind the baseline. Players and officials are nowhere to be seen, while spectators make an infrequent appearance in the form of abstract brushstrokes or dots.
Wood’s paintings blur the line between abstraction and Pop Art. A painted wood pattern surrounds Wimbledon with Wood Grain (2025), while the dotted audience of Mexican Open (2025) places the court in a star-filled galaxy. Homages to Roy Lichtenstein come in the form of works like Paris Olympics with Crying Girl (2025) and Dubai with Nude with Blue Hair (2026), where the late artist’s iconic Crying Girl (1963) and Nude with Blue Hair (1994) frame the courts. There is a standard followed with each painting: saturated colors, similar dimensions, and repeated elements. This uniformity allows the differences to come alive, making you ponder—and rethink—each piece.
Since her first solo show in New York in 1986, Lorna Simpson has explored concepts of race, gender, identity, and subjectivity, archiving Black lives and experiences in vivid, boundary-breaking form. She changed the language of photography, turning the media on itself as she framed Black women with their faces just out of view, text collaged on the images that hinted at and asked the viewer to question how the women were seen. In the decades since, Simpson brought her renowned conceptual experimentation to collage, film, sculpture, and—beginning at the 2015 Venice Biennale—painting. Now, the legendary artist is opening her first major European exhibition at Pinault Collection’s Punta della Dogana in partnership with the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Third Person, running March 29 through November 22 at the Venice museum, features over 50 of Simpson’s paintings, spanning 20 years. There’s a special focus on the aforementioned large-scale works from Okwui Enwezor’s Biennale, never-before-seen offerings from Simpson’s personal archive, and new paintings made especially for this exhibition. —Ashley Simpson

Ever since Arts and Letters NYC got a curatorial team (including Jenny Jaskey and curator Kristin Poor) two years ago, the uptown establishment has been increasingly showing up on downtown feeds. Rotated on the half year, a new suite of exhibitions has recently taken over Arts and Letters’s enviable rooms, including a mutation of Jessi Reaves’s first institutional solo show, which opened at the Walker Art Center earlier this year, and now has been reconstituted in a new configuration for Arts and Letters.
Cushions for tetris-like banquets welcome visitors into Art and Letters’s right wing; sitting atop these hand-painted perches, as you are encouraged to do, one can pivot in place and survey the show’s topography—namely, an archipelago of free-standing sculptures populated by a flock of reusable water bottles. Each water bottle bears a different paper cut-out of a bird, and these flightless creatures are like everything in Reaves’s world—a recombination. Reaves first made a name for herself in sculpture by dressing down modernist icons, Marcel Breuer seats and Le Corbusier lounges—until only their vulnerable essentials were left. Now more than a decade in, her attentions have turned elsewhere: to the empty promises of pure function and the transformative powers of accumulation. Here, a Nalgene bottle becomes a paper crane, a WPA mural becomes a bench, an art show in one city is something else entirely in a different location. By the time you’ve sat down, you’ve forgotten there is a painting underneath you. —Kat Herriman

For the next several months, tea will be served in the rotunda of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum. The occasion? Artist Carol Bove’s monumental new survey, which has taken on the Frank Lloyd Wright masterpiece as a co-conspirator rather than an obstacle. Bove—whose work has long explored the juxtaposition of geometries, both found and made—draws out the patterns and repetitions embedded in the architect’s design. In doing so, she reveals that the museum’s famous circle is in fact composed of countless rings and discs, to which she adds several of her own in metal, fabric, and paint.
As you ascend the building’s signature spiral, you travel in reverse chronology through Bove’s career. You might notice you are also moving from dark to light; Bove has applied a black-to-white ombré that unfurls floor by floor. It is a minimal intervention with maximum impact. It all comes into focus the higher you climb—Bove has consistently, and gently, adjusted the essential forms we think we know so well. By doing so, she renews them, revealing truths that were hidden in plain sight. The most glaring and delightful example? A diamond-shaped cut Bove has made in a false wall, which reveals a Joan Miró work that hasn’t been seen for decades.
It is an exhibition that insists you slow down and unwind time. It warms you up for the act of steeping by creating the conditions conducive for it: ample seating and something to sip. —K.H.
The Biblical narrative of creation is explored in a modern context in Beginnings: The Story of Creation in the Middle Ages. Paintings by American artist Harmonia Rosales are shown in dialogue with transcripts from the Getty’s collection, situating her work within the world of visual storytelling and placing her paintings in direct conversation with medieval representations of creation. Rosales has long been known to draw on artistic methods from the Renaissance and Baroque periods, combining them with African diasporic histories. She continues this practice with Beginnings by contributing a contemporary perspective shaped by West African spiritual traditions, adding to the ongoing conversation around creation. In addition to previous work, including Portrait of Eve (2021), Beginnings will feature a new piece, created in response to the significant illuminated manuscript, Stammheim Missal.
Beginnings: The Story of Creation in the Middle Ages is on view at the Getty Center in Los Angeles from January 27 to April 19.
Leonard Baby’s new show may have a quirky title, but don’t be fooled. Resting Babyface features work from the New York-based artist, which he created during a period of profound sadness. As a result, the paintings on display encapsulate the essence of vulnerability and the complexities of personal experience. This is nothing new for Baby, who often draws on his past and emotions in his work, transforming trauma into acts of resilience and self-acceptance. In Resting Babyface, Baby turns the focus to two very vulnerable settings: the bedroom and a therapist’s office. With this new set of work, Baby explores themes of aftermath and introspection, using the paintings as personal confessionals meant to leave viewers in a state of discomfort and ambiguity.
Resting Babyface is on view at Villa Carlotta in Los Angeles from February 26 to March 11.

This February, the ICA Boston turns its attention to an artist-led institution that has shaped the fabric of New England’s art community since 1977. Founded by Dana C. Chandler Jr., the African American Master Artists-in-Residence Program (AAMARP) is one of the longest-running Black artist residency programs. Therefore, its story resonates not just on a local level but a national and international one. AAMARP’s influence can be felt far beyond Boston through its alumni network of artists, educators, and organizers. Conceived originally as a Black artist-led exhibition space, AAMARP evolved into a living ecosystem: part studio collective, part political area, and part cultural refuge, where new modes of working could take root even as institutional support shifted around it.
As the first exhibition devoted to AAMARP’s far-reaching legacy, it was essential for Mannion Family Curator Jeffrey De Blois to spend lots of time with members past and present. Developed in close dialogue with the founder Chandler before his passing in 2025, the show arrives less like a retrospective and more as a constellation of practices whose collective energy points outward. At the exhibition, the story of AAMARP’s community-driven approach is told through the work of five decades of participants. There are some folks you know. The rest are discoveries. Rather than closing a chapter, the exhibition feels like an opening gesture. —K.H.

This new exhibition from photographer Ming Smith traces an artistic journey shaped by movement, experimentation, and freedom. The Detroit-born artist came of age at a time when Europe offered Black artists greater opportunity and receptivity. Smith’s travels abroad, specifically in the 1970s in Paris, proved formative; there, she encountered the evocative work of photographers like Brassaï and Henri Cartier-Bresson while developing a visual language of her own. This exhibition reflects on how those early experiences continue to inform Smith’s practice, highlighting photographs—many of which have been printed for the first time—that capture fleeting moments infused with rhythm, intuition, and motion. Smith’s work resists photography’s long-standing impulse to define, document, or objectify Black subjects. Rooted in the core principles of the Black Arts Movement, her photographs expand the medium beyond realism, often confronting and subverting the gaze itself. Her signature use of blur and abstraction is both poetic and political, mimicking the improvisational spirit of jazz while responding to the ways Black Americans are rendered simultaneously invisible and hypervisible. A pioneer for Black women in photography, Smith’s legacy lies in her innovation, her fearless experimentation, and her unwavering commitment to capturing the depth and richness of Black life. —Che Baez

Ming Smith: Jazz Requiem–Notations in Blue is on view at the Portland Museum of Art in Portland, Maine from February 6th to June 7th 2026.
For the German artist Max Jahn, frames are just as important as the imagery inside of them. As part of his practice, Jahn painstakingly chooses each border for his painted works from his father’s antique shop. They are personal to him—as personal as the colorful portraits he creates, which will be on view in the new show, Time Spent Looking. The exhibition features both portraiture (like Self With Fan, a painting in which Jahn is depicted coyly holding a floral accordion fan to his face) and still life. Jahn paints what he knows; his subjects often come from within his social circle. His relationships with them—and by extension, his depictions of them—are shaped by time and prolonged observation. He paints his sitters for an hour at a time over the course of a week, in varying lights for each session. But his work in self-portraiture arguably features his most familiar subject of all.

Hailing from Berlin and growing up in the aftermath of German reunification in the ’90s, Jahn was raised with the ghosts of a different era. He spent time at his father’s antique store on Motzstrasse, in the heart of the Schöneberg neighborhood, where painters and poets ruled before the Second World War. Otto Dix, the Dutch Masters he studied at school, Balthus, and more combine to create Jahn’s own signature style, now on display in his first solo show in New York.
Time Spent Looking runs from January 29 to Match 2026 at Gratin New York.
Multidisciplinary artist and composer Samora Pinderhughes centers his work on one urgent question: “What if we built a world around healing rather than punishment?” In Call and Response, a new exhibition at MoMA on view through February 15, 2026, Pinderhughes beckons audiences to ponder this inquiry alongside him. The show comprises two core components including a two-channel film created with Christian Padron, REAL TALK,which examines the impact of absence on families whose loved ones are incarcerated. It also features a series of performances and programming developed in collaboration with community organizations in New York City.

With Call and Response, Pinderhughes considers how narratives of criminalization are applied to groups of people to justify violence against them. “As a country, we’re willing to allow basically anything to happen if there’s this illusion that it will protect us from [who]ever is deemed criminal,” the artist said. The show is part of his stint as the 2025 Adobe Creative Resident at MoMA, and builds upon his work as a creator of The Healing Project, a community arts organization founded in the spirit of prison abolition. It also underscores Pinderhughes’s commitment to unearthing how art, particularly collective sonic practices, might contribute to collective healing and liberation. —Daria S. Harper
Sterling Ruby is an artist who, over the years, has become larger than life, a boldfaced name in both the art and fashion worlds. His work, moving across sculpture, textile, ceramics and video, explores themes of violence and the impacts of social norms while remaining autobiographical. His fashion line, S.R. Studio L.A.C.A., echoes his love of craft and feels very much due after years of lending inspiration for designers like his close friend Raf Simons. On January 30, the Los Angeles-based multihyphenate will present his first solo show in several years, running until March 28. Ruby’s new work, titled Atropa for the nightshade herb known for its deadly quality, is inspired by the duality of the deeply poisonous yet medicinal plant and the mythology that surrounds it. The Greeks associated the genus with the cutter of the thread of life. Ruby uses it as a launch pad for stirring watercolor collages, bronze flowers, and graphite pen-and-ink studies that switch between decay and vibrant bloom. As in all of Ruby’s work, material exploration is at the heart of the show. So are themes of mortality. An as usual, the exhibition is not to be missed.—A.S.
The American photographer Catherine Opie broke into art-world fame with portraiture of her early ’90s queer family, often friends from the Los Angeles S/M scene captured in the style of Baroque paintings. Early self-portraits, Self-Portrait/Cutting and Self-Potrait/Pervert display incredible tenderness, giving viewers the opportunity to lay down assumptions and connect with Opie’s community with equal depth. Over three decades later, the seminal artist will present the first major museum exhibition of her work in the U.K. at The National Portrait Gallery, from March 5 to May 31. Catherine Opie: To Be Seen will explore intimacy, home, and family—the personal and the political—through the photographer’s images of these communities, surfers, high school footballers, and more. Opie is directly involved in the curation of the show, which will speak in dialogue with the permanent collection of the museum. —A.S.
The French multidisciplinary artist Marguerite Humeau is known for reimagining and creating extinct worlds. One extensive land art project saw mystics and scientists lending expertise as Humeau brought to life 84 sculptures that could survive the climate apocalypse on land deemed unfarmable. Another gave Cleopatra a reborn voice as she sang in the nine extinct languages she was recorded to know. Now, Humeau will open a solo show for the first time at White Cube’s New York gallery. Open from January 16 to February 21, the exhibition blends stalactite-like and bat-shaped sculptures with works on paper, all inspired by a trip to a bat cave in West Papua. As in the case of previous work, the cave is not just a cave, but rather a metaphor for the unknown and the unnamable. Pastel drawings mimic prehistoric cave drawings. Stalagmite and stalactite sculptures help us navigate our precarious environment. The pieces reference John Koenig’s The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows (2021): can Humeau’s sculptures give emotion to words we have yet to invent? Her new work certainly makes us feel.—A.S.
The public will experience a different side of the perennial musical enigma Björk when she returns to her native Iceland to stage a new art exhibition at the country’s National Gallery. Echolalia, as the show is called, is comprised of three immersive installations, the first of which will provide the public with a peek into the artist’s upcoming album. The two other works, Ancestress and Sorrowful Soil, both honor Björk’s mother, environmental activist Hildur Rúna Hauksdóttir, who passed away in 2018. While these pieces were originally released with Björk’s 2022 album, Fossora, their presentation at the museum will allow for a more theatrical experience. Ancestress, specifically, features a film set in a remote valley in Iceland where a ritualistic procession is taking place. Björk and her son, Sindri Eldon, star—with contributions from filmmaker Andrew Thomas Huang and James Merry, Björk’s co–creative director and the designer of the masks and ritual objects worn in the video.
Those especially interested in Merry’s work will have the opportunity to stop by his show, Metamorphlings, running simultaneously with Echolalia at the National Gallery. The first museum retrospective of Merry’s work, Metamorphlings features 80 pieces offering a look into his artistic output over the last decade. Heavily focused on the mask, the exhibition showcases Merry’s craftsmanship while exploring the piece as a catalyst for performance and transformation. Using embroidery, metalwork, 3-D printing, and jewelry, Merry has created masks for Tilda Swinton and Iris Van Herpen; they will be on display together for the first time.
Echolalia runs from May 30 to September 19, 2026, while Metamorphlings runs from May 30 to October 3, 2026.

The V&A is staging a century-spanning exhibition on Schiaparelli, marking the first time the fashion house will be the sole subject of a museum show in the U.K. Opening March 28, Schiaparelli: Fashion Becomes Art will trace the brand from its birth in the 1920s to the present day, exploring Elsa Schiaparelli, the woman, as well as her role as an innovator and key figure in interwar fashion. The exhibition will follow Schiaparelli around the world, from Paris to New York and London, with a focus on the latter—specifically, Schiaparelli’s British clients and the founder’s relationship with the city.
Over 200 objects will make up the exhibition, including archival garments, accessories, jewelry, paintings, photographs, sculpture, furniture, and perfumes. Some of Schiaparelli’s most unique designs—including the “Tears” dress and the famous upside-down shoe hat—will be on display, placed alongside art by her contemporaries like Pablo Picasso and Man Ray. The V&A worked with Schiaparelli and the fashion house’s current creative director, Daniel Roseberry, whose designs will also be featured.
Schiaparelli: Fashion Becomes Art will run through November 8, 2026.
Those who sit in small Venn diagram of And Just Like That... viewers and fine art lovers were likely horrified to see Tracey Emin’s seminal work imitated, and then tossed aside in the Sex and the City reboot’s final season. Luckily, Tate Modern is stepping in to provide Dame Emin with deserved credit, by mounting an expansive exhibition tracing four decades of the artist’s work—showcasing her most influential pieces alongside those that have never been exhibited until now. Through painting, video, textiles, neons, writing, sculpture, and installation, Emin has long challenged society’s view of the female body, as well as the line between public and personal. She did this most notably with her 1998 piece, My Bed, using the conversation that sparked around this controversial piece to further challenge the definition of art at the turn of the 21st century. At Tate Modern, My Bed and more work will be on display in a celebration of Emin’s raw and personal approach to artistic expression.
Tracey Emin runs at Tate Modern from February 27 to August 31, 2026.
Dan Flavin’s grids take center stage for the first time at David Zwirner New York, in a new exhibition that explores the matrix-like vertical artist’s body of work, which first gained prominence in the mid 1970s. Like much of Flavin’s fluorescent lamp-based pieces, the grids simultaneously highlight and redefine every space in which they’re installed. This latest exhibition features Flavin’s first two grids: untitled (for Mary Ann and Hal with fondest regards)1 and 2. Both created in 1976, they will be installed at Zwirner identically to their debut at the Otis Art Institute Gallery, Los Angeles, where they sat kitty-corner to one another in a single room. Other pieces, including four-foot creations like untitled (for you, Leo, in long respect and affection) 3 and 4, illustrate Flavin’s exploration of scale within the format. They are contrasted by untitled (in honor of Leo at the 30th anniversary of his gallery), which spans 24 feet. Flavin’s dedications within the work provide a second narrative to the exhibition, one that follows the many people who helped support the artist’s career. Former gallery director of the Otis Art Institute Gallery, Hal Glicksman (and his wife Mary Ann), plus his longtime New York dealer Leo Castelli are just some of the figures represented through this set of work.
Dan Flavin’s Grids will run from January 15 to February 21, 2026, at David Zwirner New York.
Gloria Klein, a contemporary artist known for her bold, expressive work, is championed in a new lively exhibition of paintings, and her first solo show, at Anat Ebgi in New York. Featuring works from the late 1980s and early ’90s, the exhibition immerses viewers in Klein’s hypnotic, repeated diagonal hatch marks that stack and shimmer across the canvas. While her work nods to Minimalism and Conceptual art, it is joyfully rooted in the Pattern & Decoration movement and the feminist embrace of so-called “women’s work,” transforming repetition, ornament, and labor into something bold and eye-catching. Klein’s stitch-like marks echo the crowded streets of New York, visual noise, and the early digital pulses of the 1980s. Visually addictive and intellectually playful, Crisis Management is an irresistible invitation to step into Klein’s radiant world, and the feminist spirit that animates it, up close.
Gloria Klein: Crisis Management is on view at Anat Ebgi through February 28, 2026.
