Luar SS26 was a love letter scrawled in feathers, leather, and grit — addressed not to the masses, but to the soul of downtown NYC. Raw yet refined, it walked the line between rebellion and romance with unwavering confidence.

Altuzarra wasn’t even on my radar - until now. From delicate bird appliqués to cascading florals and refined tailoring, this Spring/Summer 2026 collection was a masterclass in sensual elegance and craftsmanship. Here’s why Look 33 and the rest of the runway absolutely stole the show.

I didn’t expect to fall in love with this show, but from the very first look, Anna Sui’s SS26 collection swept me away into a world of vintage florals, dreamy textures, and romantic silhouettes. Think prairie-chic meets 1970s bohemia, with soft pastels, antique lace, and whimsical layering that felt like pressing pause on modernity and stepping into a soft-focus daydream.

Nicholas Aburn’s debut collection for Area at NYFW was a bold, glitter-drenched display of technical brilliance and playful experimentation. From sculptural denim to pom-pom-inspired finales, this show proved Area’s new era is in very safe, and stylish, hands.
