Through the lens of Ksenia Usacheva, Summer 2026 unfolds in a dialogue of light, movement and effortless sophistication. Dior, Ferragamo, Dolce & Gabbana, Fendi, Tod’s, Vivienne Westwood, Max Mara, Loro Piana and Giorgio Armani come together in an editorial exploring the many expressions of contemporary elegance.
In homage to David Lynch, Stefanie Renoma enters a Paris suspended between reverie and unease. Fashion becomes cinematic language: beauty, shadow and desire collide in images charged with extreme tension, where Vivienne Westwood, Renoma Paris, Ken Okada, Inclover, Finsbury and the beauty universes of Dior and YSL inhabit a world in which nothing is quite what it seems.
Haute couture exists where imagination refuses compromise. From sculptural silhouettes and impossible volumes to embroidery, movement and the intelligence of the hand, EDGE revisits the Summer 2026 collections of Dior, Schiaparelli, Dolce & Gabbana, Armani Privé, Elie Saab, Viktor & Rolf, Rahul Mishra, Millorico Couture and Stéphane Rolland — nine singular visions of what couture can still become.
