Discover the new Spring Summer 2026 collection with a wide range of colours, designs and materials. Soft Summer combines light pastels with summery prints and soft colour gradients and thus reflects a certain lightness. In contrast to this is Colour Up. Strong, intense colours meet eye-catching designs and sporty tapes. Gentle Retro convinces with ornaments and paisleys in radiant earth tones. High summer feelings brings the theme of Palm Springs. Palm tree designs in a wide variety of variations and textured surfaces on ribbons and labels fancy the summer.
Soft Summer
Soft Summer stands for a wide variety of summery motifs with soft colour gradients. The flowing transitions and designs reflect the lightness of summer. Bright pastel colours underline the summery mood.
Gentle Retro
Gentle Retro combines strong earth tones such as a rich olive and orange with a radiant turquoise, giving the collection a subtle freshness. Motifs such as ornaments and paisleys become ideal designs for summer due to the colour combinations.
Palm Springs
Palm Springs – the name says it all. Various palm tree motifs are interpreted in a wide variety of ways with summery colours. The colours ranges from a strong rasberry pink to noble orange nuances and shades of green.
Colour Up
Colourful – eye-catching – fancy! This is the theme of Colour Up. Strong, intense colours meet striking designs. Colour blocking and comic elements are not to be missed. Sporty elastic and ribtapes complement the theme perfectly.

MATERIA FUTURA – SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS
Materia Futura is not proposing a new bio-material category, nor a finished commercial textile. What distinguishes the project is its design-led investigation into the emotional and aesthetic dimensions of bio-based materials, an area often sidelined in sustainability discourse.
THREADED PROTOCOLS – SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS
Threaded Protocols is not a textile innovation in the commercial sense, nor a digital tool disguised as craft. What makes the work distinct is its material investigation into how computational logic originates in textile practice and what is lost when those logics are abstracted into opaque technological systems.
MARIE VILAY – SUSTAINABLE INNOVATIONS
Marie Vilay does not present a new fabric or production technique. What distinguishes her work is a method of reading and translating textile knowledge across cultures, systems, and moments of transition.
