LEMAIRE SS26

Lemaire woke us right up. Soundtracked by the energetic beat of live drums and guitar, the brand presented a collection for Spring/Summer 2026 that playfully referenced the ideas of New Age and hippie dressing, juxtaposing it with the house’s signature lived-in elegance.

Some of the looks explored the idea of “spiritual” wardrobe in a more explicit manner. Small beaded pouches peeked from underneath roomy jackets. A printed T-shirt in cream was worn with a white long-sleeved top and a dangling beaded necklace reaching the waist, while a chocolate brown tunic accompanied white culottes. A statement necklace (one of the brand’s signatures in their compelling vocabulary) with a pendant in the shape of a gua sha fork brightened up an all-black silhouette.

The garments felt even more delicate and sensual than usual. Lace was used to create flowy dresses, one of them worn under a light off-white trench. Tied cream shorts were draped to perfection, showcasing openings on the side of the legs. In a show that felt almost meditative, Lemaire once again delivered what they do best: clothes that feel like trusted companions –  soothing to the mind and comforting in the idea that sophistication will always prevail.
