At EgonLab, the SS26 menswear collection presented a bold vision that fused avant-garde tailoring with elements of deconstruction and theatricality. Exaggerated silhouettes, sculptural accessories, and a mix of monochromatic and muted palettes created an artistic yet raw aesthetic. Extreme shoulders and dramatic, sculptural necklines delivered futuristic, statuesque looks.
The garments frequently play with asymmetry, loose panels, and fluidity—balancing precision and chaos—while oversized silhouettes dominate, particularly in coats and outerwear. The collection offers a poetic encounter between structure, precision, and dramatism, serving as a unique representation of the modern man.
The pieces flirt between conceptual and surrealist approaches, with touches of tailoring that showcase the brand’s technical prowess and deep understanding of proportion and construction. The collection evokes an edgy man with timeless appeal and artistic allure.
The overall offering is dominated by black, white, beige, and khaki, with pops of mustard and gingham red. Volumes and textures take centre stage. Sharp lines elevate traditional menswear into a refined design language where the garments themselves become focal points. Ultimately, EgonLab’s SS26 collection redefined contemporary menswear through a minimalist yet maximalist lens—where precision meets provocation, and where garments become sculptural extensions of the wearer’s inner world.
