STÖHR’S SPRING/SUMMER 26 COLLECTION “GRAINS”

Stöhr’s newest collection explores an unusual material approach: an entire collection created exclusively from wood. At its core lies a simple question: what if fashion were shaped by a conscious return to craftsmanship, material awareness, and a closer relationship to nature? Rather than proposing a nostalgic step backwards, the project frames this idea as a deliberate and high-quality vision of the future.
The work centers on an in-depth engagement with a specific craft and a single material. Using wood veneer and thin wooden strips, different techniques were applied to transform the material into garments and bring it into a wearable form. Through three distinct processing methods, the wood was treated in a way that provides both stability and the possibility of being worn.
Within this approach, fashion is no longer understood purely as clothing but as a symbolic carrier of ideas. The established assumption of function within the fashion system is therefore reconsidered and deliberately shifted. Instead of “form follows function,” the collection proposes a different principle: “form follows material.” The photographs accompanying the project were taken by Sven Zink.

JULIAN CHARRIÈRE’S ‘MIDNIGHT ZONE’  – HIS LARGEST EXHIBITION YET

Opening at the Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg on March 13, 2026, Julian Charrière’s Midnight Zone marks the largest solo exhibition to date for the renowned French-Swiss artist. Developed in collaboration with the Museum Tinguely in Basel, the show transforms the museum’s Great Hall into a profound, immersive space where the physical body, sound, and image converge.

The exhibition takes its name from the ‘aphotic’ layer of the ocean, a lightless realm between 1,000 and 4,000 meters deep, which serves as the focal point of Charrière’s recent creative exploration. Through a specifically designed scenography, visitors are invited into a multisensory experience that reflects on the significance of our oceans and the mysterious biodiversity hidden within their depths. From the blinding light of a rotating Fresnel lens cutting through the Pacific abyss to the monumental presence of submarine glaciers, Charrière’s work offers a transformative look at the world’s most enigmatic environments.

The exhibition officially opens on March 13 at 7:00 PM with an opening ceremony and a subsequent party.

CANADA GOOSE CELEBRATING THE COMEBACK OF THE SUN

With the second chapter of its Spring 2026 collection, Canada Goose celebrates the return of the sun and the Arctic’s evocative transition from polar darkness to light. Specifically engineered for the shoulder season, the collection strikes a sophisticated balance between insulating warmth and breathable lightness. Captured by photographer Arnaud Lajeunie against a backdrop of stark northern landscapes, the campaign highlights designs that prioritize flexibility and performance in extreme environments.

Key pieces include the 90s-inspired Axis Jacket, crafted from recycled nylon, alongside the Vault and Quest models, both drawing inspiration from archival designs originally developed for the U.S. Antarctic Program. While the Vault Pant introduces a modern ‘bubble look’ through adjustable hems, the Regency Jacket offers a sleek, water-repellent interpretation of the classic coach silhouette. The full collection launched worldwide on March 9, 2026, and is now available both in-store and online.

MOOSE KNUCKLES SS26 – STRENGTH IN FLUIDITY 

For the Spring/Summer 2026 season, Moose Knuckles is redefining the boundaries of outerwear, drawing inspiration from the precision and weightless freedom of paragliding. Under the vision of Global Creative Director Ludovico Bruno, the collection strikes a sophisticated balance between ‘strength and fluidity’, engineered to perform in the urban landscape while maintaining a sense of effortless lightness.

The SS26 assortment translates the brand’s technical DNA into warmer-weather essentials through key product pillars, including innovative Freehang Down, Air Down, and protective Nylon Shells. Texture plays a central role with the introduction of Memory and Crinkle fabrics, while the brand’s iconic ‘Bunny’ is reimagined in rugged cotton and reversible denim, offering a modular and functional update to a house staple.

This collection marks a strategic evolution for Moose Knuckles as it expands beyond its cold-weather heritage. As Global CEO Ellen Kinney emphasizes, the goal was to translate the ‘luxe integrity’ of their winter icons into lightweight, season-less layers. By merging high-performance craftsmanship with a bold, uncompromising attitude, SS26 reinforces the brand’s commitment to creating pieces that empower its community to ‘Stand Out’ in any environment.

G-STAR RAW RESEARCH: A NEW ERA OF DENIM INNOVATION 

G-STAR is officially bringing back RAW RESEARCH, the brand’s dedicated laboratory for denim innovation. Conceived as an experimental atelier, RAW RESEARCH serves as a creative intersection where high-level engineering meets boundary-pushing design. Following the influential era of Aitor Throup, the line now enters a new chapter under the creative leadership of Lisi Herrebrugh and Rushemy Botter, who aim to redefine the architecture of denim through a lens of precision and material research.

The duo’s vision comes to life in a 24-piece all-gender collection that bridges G-STAR’s extensive archive with a modern, functional context. The assortment focuses on meticulous fits and refined workwear details, ranging from reversible bomber jackets and naval-inspired outerwear to sophisticated Selvedge denim silhouettes. A particular highlight is the reimagining of the iconic G-STAR Elwood in new baggy variations, alongside thoughtfully detailed skirts and dresses.

To capture the raw, industrial essence of the collection, the campaign was lensed by photographer Pieter Hugo. His direct and stark visual language mirrors the brand’s ‘Denim-first’ philosophy, setting the stage for a collection that is as much about craftsmanship as it is about the future of utility.
