As Men’s Fashion Week in Paris continues, sustainability is at the forefront from upcycled fabric to fish leather. Doublet’s green urban oasis reminds us of all that Mother Nature provides us. From the food on our plates to the materials we use to make fabric from, it’s important to utilize everything to unburden her. Willy Chavarria and Kenzo embraced bold colors, vibrant floral prints, and statement accessories, reminding us that fashion can be playful and joyfully expressive.
At the Matière Noire, Y-3 presented a four act dance performance, inspiring viewers to move their bodies. Officine Générale channeled the seaside on the Rue Jules Chaplain blending coastal vibes with effortless elegance. Marine Serre, Sacai, and Vowels focused on elevated classics that can be worn any time, all day long. Here are our favorites from their spring/summer 2026 collections.

Masayuki Ino presents “Itadakimasu” for Doublet’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection, a playful tribute to the environment inspired by the Japanese expression of gratitude said before a meal. Set in Le Paysan Urbain’s lush urban oasis, the collection serves up an eco-conscious visual feast. Models wore garments crafted from fish and game leather made from waste materials, along with ovoveil—a delicate fabric derived from eggshell membranes that helps maintain the skin’s natural barrier. From inventive textiles to fruit-inspired details and sculptural silhouettes, Ino celebrates the nourishment nature provides in all its forms.
Sacai — Everyday All Day

Creative Director Chitose Abe unveiled a collection of versatile, forward-thinking pieces that redefine sustainability. Sacai continues to challenge conventional fashion norms, using oversized tailoring to elevate everyday style. Softly structured, voluminous pants and sleeves lend an air of effortless sophistication, while recurring asymmetrical silhouettes invite wearers to take up space rather than conform. A palette of grounded neutrals anchors the collection in quiet confidence. Each look serves as a reminder that comfort and innovation are not mutually exclusive, they can coexist beautifully, without compromise.
Kenzo — Club Kenzo

For Spring/Summer 2026, NIGO unveils “Club Kenzo“—a vibrant meeting point where past, present, and future cultures collide. Drawing inspiration from Andy Warhol’s The Factory, Kenzo Takada’s 1970s Parisian studio, and contemporary streetwear, NIGO reimagines these influences through a modern lens. Graffiti elements blend with retro touches, while Italian tailoring elevates archival prints. Floral motifs feature prominently, including a revived rose print from the 1990s. Club Kenzo encourages bold expression in everyday life, turning even the most mundane moments into opportunities for style, rather than saving statement pieces for the evening..
Vowels — What a Day

Vowels, the Tokyo-meets-New York brand, presented “What a Day” during Men’s Fashion Week. Designer Yuki Yagi unveiled a collection of elevated classic silhouettes in a playful exhibition space, where mannequins were captured mid–everyday activity—opening a fridge, sunbathing, even performing a handstand. Standout details included sunflower motifs woven through jacquard patterns and a soft color palette featuring hues like matcha mist and lavender. This lighthearted take on workwear challenges the dominance of traditional black, blue, and white, encouraging expressive alternatives. Through What a Day, Yagi continues to embody his philosophy of Shu Ha Ri, honoring refined traditional silhouettes while reimagining them through innovative colors and textures.
Marine Serre — The Source

In Marine Serre’s latest collection, “The Source,” the garment itself becomes the essence. Described as “a versatile collection made for every hour of the day,” Serre dissolves the traditional boundaries between day and evening wear, advocating for a thoughtfully curated, all-encompassing wardrobe. Each piece is meticulously crafted—often from upcycled materials—underscoring her continued commitment to sustainability. Playful touches, from upcycled silk scarves and trompe-l’œil python cotton to crocodile prints and cowboy-inspired florals, are styled with a sense of refined elegance, blending innovation with intention.
Y-3 — An Immersive Performance

This season, Matière Noire partnered with Rémy Brière to unveil an immersive performance at Palais Brongniart. Movement artists from the Kianí del Valle (KDV) Performance Group, led by Kianí del Valle, performed a four-act piece exploring the relationship between athleticism and expression. In the final act, a five-piece capsule was revealed in tribute to Adidas athletes associated with the number 5—Zinedine Zidane, Jude Bellingham, Garrett Wilson, and Anthony Edwards—each piece representing a facet of their athletic identity.
The performance served as a test of the brand’s core philosophy: “athleticism stripped back to its essential essence.” Amid a sea of black and white, dip-dyed garments emerged as visual highlights—each with a unique gradient, reinforcing the idea that no two movements, or individuals, are ever the same.
Officine Générale — Pariviera

On Rue Jules Chaplain, Officine Générale unveiled “Pariviera.” While most Parisians know the street for its art house cinemas, for Pierre Mahéo, it’s home—the location of the brand’s headquarters and showrooms. One day, standing on the sidewalk, Mahéo was struck by a longing for the seaside, a simple blue horizon free of buildings. That moment sparked a collection that merges coastal ease with urban sophistication. “Pariviera” brings the seaside to Paris through maritime details, beach sandals, and casually rolled-up pant hems. Loose tailoring, cotton-linen-TENCEL blends, and lightweight scarves capture a breezy, relaxed spirit while staying rooted in the city’s effortlessly chic aesthetic.
Willy Chavarria — Huron

“Huron” by Willy Chavarria is a bold political statement, an exploration of what fashion means in a world defined by uncertainty. The show opened with 35 men wearing T-shirts emblazoned with a powerful message:
“THE ACLU DARES TO CREATE A MORE PERFECT UNION – BEYOND ONE PERSON, PARTY, OR SIDE.” In partnership with the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), Chavarria used the platform to spotlight the injustices faced by immigrants in the United States. For Willy Chavarria, luxury is not a symbol of privilege but a tool for purpose. “Exquisite tailoring and craftsmanship worn to elevate one’s personal intent—that’s power. That’s fashion.” This collection is a deeply personal journey of growth. Fashion becomes a medium for empowerment, an unapologetic display of identity, conviction, and resistance.
