The month’s launches span bridal couture and beach drops, heritage craft and conscious basics, fine jewellery and statement sneakers — a range that reflects just how much ground contemporary dressing covers. Brands are thinking carefully about the how and the why: where a textile comes from, how a silhouette moves, what a piece means beyond the season it’s made for. The result is an edit that feels considered without being earnest, and varied without losing focus.
Onitsuka Tiger And Soho House Tokyo Unite Over Japanese Denim
To mark Soho House’s first Japanese outpost, Onitsuka Tiger designed an exclusive uniform collection unveiled at the Tokyo opening earlier this month. Rooted in the brand’s DENIVITA™ denim series, the range moves between 1950s workwear-inspired jackets, loose-fit jeans and multi-pocket aprons, with oversized navy and beige tees softening the look. Dark grey wool tailoring and a cotton-cashmere knit pull it into more refined territory — the kind of balance that feels very Tokyo. Functional by design, elegant by nature.
Ritu Kumar’s Ode To The Indian Bride — And The Indian Summer
Ritu Kumar steps into the season with two new launches that feel like two sides of the same coin. ‘The Wedding Collection’ is the house at its most considered — Dhaka Jamdani reimagined in organza, Farrukhabad block prints worked into patchwork, Kalamkari elevated with gold embroidery on tissue silk, all realised through hundreds of hours of artisan handwork. The palette moves between muted golds, jewel tones and signature hits of coral and magenta, with silhouettes — lehengas, saris, anarkalis — built for the modern Indian bride who wants her clothes to mean something.
The Spring Summer ’26 collection, meanwhile, takes a lighter breath: soft pastels, whites and khakis with chikankari-inspired embroidery in the first half, and richer tapestries and botanical jaals in the second. Different moods, same unwavering commitment to craft.
Anaar’s SS26 Is Footwear That Earns A Second Look
World of Anaar’s Spring Summer 2026 collection is built around a simple idea: that footwear should feel as good as it looks. Ballerinas, mules, wedge sandals and white sneakers move between everyday ease and dressed-up moments, united by the kind of craft that makes you look twice — floral threadwork, gemstone accents, cutdana, resham, zardozi, 3D florals, pearl finishes. Across every silhouette, the craft is the point.
The Adidas Superstar Gets Its First India Co-Create — With Ranveer Singh
Adidas Originals marks a first for India with a co-created Superstar designed in collaboration with Ranveer Singh. The silhouette stays true to its iconic form but arrives loaded with intention — tiger-inspired detailing across the three stripes, a bespoke Ranveer Singh insignia, and jewel-like accents that add depth to the classic black-and-white base. The Royal Bengal Tiger is the reference point, channelling instinct and power through every design detail. This collaboration marks a pivotal moment for Adidas Originals in India, reinforcing the Superstar’s enduring legacy while firmly placing Indian creativity within the global conversation.
Deriva SS/26 Is A Love Letter To The Coastal Summer
‘Deriva’ by Sameer Madan is the rare summer collection that manages to feel both precise and completely unguarded. Faux leather appears sparingly — minimal accents, sharp geometric trims — while luxury cottons, crepes and satins do the heavy lifting. The embroidery is where the collection earns its keep: pop sequins built in layers, with ring details and a deliberately loose construction that catches light differently with every move. Fringe runs through dresses and skirts in both leather and fabric, elongated to animate the silhouette. The palette — lime, coastal haze, the warm glow of a slow sunset, maps the mood of a long day by the water.
Urmil By Ritika & Prerna’s Spring Summer Collection Is the Art Of Saying Less
Urmil’s Spring Summer collection, Ceremony of the Unsaid, is exactly what the name suggests — understated, intentional, and quietly confident. Fluid drapes, modern layering and restrained handcraft define the range, with pieces designed to reveal themselves through movement rather than make an immediate statement. For those who find more meaning in subtlety, this one’s worth a closer look.
No Nasties’ Is Here To Shake Up Your Basics
The cult ‘Polka Dot’ collection from No Nasties has a new addition, and it arrives in a shade that feels like a natural evolution — deeper, richer, and a little more grown-up. The Emerald Polka Knit top is crafted in their signature cashmere-soft organic cotton, oversized in the best way, and the kind of thing you throw on without a second thought. Made from 100% organic cotton, it stays true to the brand’s conscious ethos while proving, once again, that sustainable dressing doesn’t have to try this hard.
NOIB’s Resort ’26 Drop Is Dressed For Wherever The Day Takes You
NOIB’s ‘An Ode to the Isles’ returns with a second drop, and it feels exactly like its name — unhurried, coastal, and lived-in. Built around viscose and crochet, the collection moves easily from water to shore without the need to overthink or change. Prints take their cues from coastal life — lobsters, fish, seashells — but interpreted loosely, more like a memory of a place than a postcard from it. Each motif is developed in-house from original artwork, refined across multiple iterations before meeting hand embroidery that adds depth to the final piece. NOIB is clearly dressing the right kind of summer.
The Clutch As Canvas: Lotus Arts de Vivre’s Summer Capsule
Hand-woven from natural Indonesian bamboo using traditional wicker techniques, Lotus Arts de Vivre’s new capsule is exactly the kind of thing summer accessories should be — expressive, artisanal, and impossible to ignore. The collection spans hand-painted rabbit and jungle tiger motifs to a running horse clutch with a tsavorite eye, each piece finished with bold hues and a lightness that makes them as easy to carry as they are to love. Heritage craft, playful spirit.
‘The Summer Garden’ By House Of Fett Is Every Slow, Sun-Drenched Day At Once
The Summer Garden distills the sensory memory of an unhurried Indian summer — honey-glazed afternoons, mango-scented air, light filtering softly through trees — into a wardrobe that feels atmospheric without being theatrical. Breathable linens and crisp cottons are chosen to feel almost imperceptible against the skin, while silhouettes stay fluid and softly sculpted with just enough structure to hold their shape. The colour story moves through orchard yellows, softened greens and deep botanical teals, luminous but never overdone.
Teejh’s New ‘Solea’ Collection Lets Druzy Stones Take Centre Stage
Built around druzy stones and their raw, crystalline texture, the collection’s pieces catch light differently with every wear — no two pieces alike. The mood is warm and tropical, designed to move between statement dressing and everyday wear without the need to choose.
GAP Is Making A Strong Case For Linen This Summer
GAP’s Spring/Summer 2026 linen offering keeps things straightforward — tailored pants, relaxed shirts, easy dresses, and matching sets that take the thinking out of warm-weather dressing. This season though, there’s more to work with: fresh colours, new prints, modern flare silhouettes and lace trim detailing that push the range beyond its usual basics.
Ray-Ban’s New Wayfarer Turns Up The Volume On A Classic
The iconic Wayfarer gets an oversized update with Ray-Ban’s N1 collection — same unmistakable shape, same signature rivets, just bigger and bolder. Classic DNA, louder presence.
Dhãran’s Latest Collection Is Summer Dressing At Its Most Effortless
Jaipur-based Dhãran brings its signature hand block printing, indigo and dabu techniques to ‘Bouquet of Love’, a Spring Summer collection built for exactly the kind of days its name suggests. Breezy silhouettes, delicate prints, skilled artisan handwork — slow and sunlit.
FILA’s Echappe Is The Low-Profile Sneaker Your Rotation Needs
FILA is dropping three new sneakers this season — the Echappe, Kenza Vita, and MERZI. Leading the pack is the Echappe, a low-profile silhouette that feels perfectly timed. The shape is clean, the detailing is sharp, and it moves effortlessly across denim, tailored pieces and everything in between. The kind of sneaker you don’t have to think about — which, right now, is exactly the point.
Mango Season Has A New Meaning, Courtesy Bungalow Swim
Bungalow Swim’s latest collection captures the mood of a beach day that refuses to end. The collection is built around a saturated mango orange palette that instantly stands out against sunlit backdrops and coastal settings. The design language is clean yet striking, with each style bringing in a distinct silhouette.
Irasva’s ‘ISSHO’ Collection Is Togetherness, Translated Into Jewellery
ISSHO — Japanese for “together” — sets the tone for Irasva’s latest collaboration with Shibani Akhtar. Fluid, pared-back, and rooted in how something should feel to wear rather than how it should look on a moodboard. The kind of jewellery you reach for on an ordinary Tuesday and somehow still feel like yourself.
Chapter Three Of Nicobar’s River Series Brings Us To The Ganga
In its tenth year, Nicobar is exploring India one river at a time — and the third chapter arrives at the Ganga. The collection is anchored in Varanasi, drawing its design language from the ghats: marigold offerings, paan leaves, hand-painted walls, layered posters worn down by decades. These details are translated into prints, patches and embroideries that feel time-worn and tactile, motifs that appear and recede like offerings carried downstream. Fluid silhouettes in breathable cotton and chiffon move through a palette that maps the river’s shifting moods — soft morning pinks into earthy midday tones, deepening at dusk into indigo, marigold and amber. Not just inspired by the Ganga, but immersed in the life lived beside her.
Tree & Poetry’s New Collection Is An Archive Stitched Into Cloth
‘A Promised Land’ is Tree & Poetry at their most intentional — a collection centred on Palestine, its people, and the quiet rituals that shape collective memory. Women gathered at dusk, fruit carried in hand, homes where daily life continues alongside uncertainty. Narratives like The Oranges of Jaffa and Songs of the Sunbird move through abundance, rupture and resilience, treating remembrance not as reference but as resistance. These aren’t prints inspired by a place — they’re stories that travel with the wearer, archived in cloth.
RIMOWA Goes Bold With Orange And Magenta For SS26
RIMOWA adds two new shades to its Essential and Groove ranges this season, and they’re not subtle. Orange — vibrant, Pop-inspired, unapologetically energetic — and Magenta, a deep luminous fuchsia that leans into playful sophistication. Both arrive in the Essential polycarbonate suitcase with RIMOWA’s signature hardware and lifetime guarantee, while the Groove Cross-Body Bag Small in Orange, crafted from Italian calf leather, extends the colour story beyond the luggage carousel. A full suite of travel accessories in Orange — toiletry pouches, packing cubes — rounds out what is essentially an invitation to travel in full colour.
Ekaraa’s Classique Collection Is Fine Jewellery For Every Day, Not Just Every Occasion

A post shared by Ekaraa Jewellery (@ekaraajewellery)
Ekaraa’s Classique Collection is built around a simple premise — jewellery you actually wear. Studs, tennis bracelets, single-line necklaces, stackable pieces, mangal sutras, nose pins and men’s rings, all crafted with VVS and VS diamonds and defined by clean silhouettes and quiet confidence. Nothing overstated, nothing underworked. The kind of pieces you layer without thinking and reach for every morning without question.
Chorus SS26 Treats Craft As Architecture
Chorus arrives for SS26 with a collection that treats embroidery as structure, not decoration. Corsetry and tailoring codes are taken apart and rebuilt — seams spiral, fabric folds into origami-inspired geometry, asymmetric silhouettes move with choreographic precision. The Orbit series traces garment outlines in handcrafted macramé spheres; the Tetra series works crisp cotton poplin into faceted, sculptural forms. Raw indigo denim sits against silk organza, Swarovski crystals, Sangallo cutwork and needlepoint lace — weighted and ethereal in the same breath. Garments that don’t follow the season so much as outlast it.
Aisha Rao’s Inter Hana Is Where Botanicals Meet Abstraction
Showcased at Lakmé Fashion Week this year, ‘Inter Hana’ marks a considered new chapter for Aisha Rao — rooted in in-house craftsmanship and a sharpening creative language. Drawing from Japanese artist Fumi Imamura, the collection reinterprets botanical forms through abstraction, florals dissolving into geometry, traditional motifs pulled through a contemporary lens. The result is a wardrobe that moves easily between the everyday and the celebratory without losing its sense of authorship.
Viya By Vikram Goyal Steps Into Womenswear With Its First Clothing Collection
Best known for its sculptural approach to homeware, Viya by Vikram Goyal makes its womenswear debut with a collection that feels like a natural extension of the same design language. The Astra series explores plants and sun signs through the lens of Indian cultural memory, while Blossom reinterprets native fruits into expressive prints across versatile separates. Kimonos, tunics, kaftans, robes and relaxed trousers are crafted in Chanderi, Ramie, Organza and Silk, with brass detailing, appliqué and restrained hand embroidery tying it back to the Viya universe.
Step Into Summer With Birkenstock SS/26
Birkenstock’s Spring Summer 2026 collection does what the brand does best — takes its most beloved silhouettes and refreshes them without overcomplicating things. This season’s palette draws from the natural world: deep teal, rust orange, pure sage and basalt grey, tones that move as easily from city streets to coastal escapes as the cork-latex footbed moves with your foot.
‘Daybreak’ By The Bear House Is Menswear At Its Most Effortless
The Bear House’s latest campaign drop, is built around the quiet energy of early summer mornings — breathable linens, relaxed silhouettes and a palette of sun-washed neutrals that carry you from the first hours of the day through to the evening. Nothing overdressed, nothing underthought. Just a wardrobe that moves as freely as the season does.
Less, But Better — The Postbox’s Design Philosophy In A Bag
Chennai-based ‘The Postbox’ has spent over a decade doing the opposite of everything noisy in fashion — fewer products, better materials, and a design philosophy rooted in how things are actually used. Backpacks, slings, totes and work bags crafted in genuine leather and German-sourced Nylon Canvas, both chosen for durability and the kind of ageing that makes a bag better with time. Leather is sourced from Leather Working Group-certified suppliers and aniline-dyed to retain its natural character, while every material meets REACH and ROHS standards. A brand that lets the product do the talking — and the product holds up.
From Sculptural Heels To Everyday Sneakers, ALDO’s SS26 Has It All Figured Out
ALDO launched its Spring Summer 2026 collection with Rasha Thadani as brand ambassador. The collection spans sculptural heels, refined sandals, espadrilles and everyday sneakers, all built around ALDO’s Pillow Walk™ Technology for all-day comfort without compromising on design. Accessories — satchels, crossbodies, totes and top-handle styles — arrive in elevated neutrals and soft seasonal tones that complement rather than compete.
TrueSilver Turns Movement Into Jewellery With Dancing Muse
TrueSilver’s latest collection, ‘Dancing Muse’, takes its cue from movement — wave-like forms, sculptural curves and fluid silhouettes that feel instinctive rather than constructed. Spanning over 40 designs across wavy rings, chains, earrings and bracelets in silver, gold and rose gold plating, with select pieces accented in cubic zirconia for added depth. Confident enough to wear alone, versatile enough to layer.
Tego’s Revive Collection Is Activewear With a Conscience
Tego’s Revive collection is a considered edit of everyday essentials built on the principles of longevity and conscious construction. Made using recycled PET bottles, 100% cotton with zero cut waste, and no harmful chemicals, the collection reduces water and energy use without compromising on the kind of easy, versatile design Tego is known for.
Da Milano’s SS26 Is An Italian Summer, Bottled Into A Collection
Da Milano’s Spring Summer ’26 takes its cues from the Amalfi Coast and Capri — sun-baked neutrals, Mediterranean brights, lime and caramel running through raffia, suede, canvas and patent leather finishes. Hand-woven details, quilting and layered textures bring craftsmanship to the fore, while the silhouettes stay light and travel-ready. The men’s portfolio gets a significant expansion this season with pouches, backpacks and laptop bags designed for the style-conscious commuter, and a curated range of trolleys round out the travel edit. Bag charms and custom accents add a playful personalisation element that feels very much of the moment. Effortless luxury, Italian-style.
