LUISA SPAGNOLI SPRING/SUMMER 2026 COLLECTION

”Nature is never in a hurry, yet everything is accomplished.” — Lao Tzu, Chinese philosopher, 6th century BC A brand created by a woman, for women. A visionary entrepreneur, Luisa Spagnoli (Perugia 1877-Paris 1935), transformed the very fabric of Italian fashion with the same naturalness with which thread is woven on a loom. A woman who understood, before anyone else, that true elegance comes from the freedom of the body to breathe, to move, to exist. The Luisa Spagnoli SS26 collection is a return to the essentials that become extraordinary: natural life as a starting point and destination, the female body celebrated in her original harmony.

Fashion as the breath of the present. As free-flowing movement in the world. Fashion as the breath of a free body. A collection of whispers, colors, and fabrics. The color research defines its identity, sunny and natural. Coral, lemon, sand, water, pink, and periwinkle combine with deeper, more textured shades, cocoa, and bronze. The graphic contrasts of black and white create rhythm and structure—the collection’s backbone—while evanescent colors complete the palette with an ethereal touch, and represent its heartbeat. The choice of materials is oriented towards material lightness, where classics are renewed and reenergized through the purity of the materials. Thus, linen, cotton, gauze, georgette, and silk organza create impalpable and dynamic volumes, enriched by sartorial details enhanced by pleats, flounces, and ribbing.

The workmanship emphasizes craftsmanship and attention to detail. Linen caresses the skin like a Mediterranean breeze, cotton is woven as only expert hands know how to do, natural silk glides like spring water. There is no need to raise your voice when fabrics express themselves with such quiet eloquence. It is a collection that celebrates life as the fulcrum of feminine elegance: proportions align with the body, dresses arise from the waist and flow naturally, jackets rest gently on the hips. Raffia bustiers do not constrain but emphasize, a meeting point between above and below, between heaven and earth.

A collection for women who do not chase nature because they are nature—their bodies are the measure of all things.
A refined interplay of cultivated naturalness, where apparent simplicity conceals absolute sartorial complexity: the focus is always on her, the Luisa Spagnoli SS26 woman who wears linen like a second skin, allowing her natural life to shape her silhouette. Knitwear is a central element of the collection and is also featured in some dresses in essential styles such as tank top variations. Here, the work on marked waists takes on further depth: weaves and ribbing in knitwear define the lines of the body with sophisticated naturalness.

Natural cotton, linen, and silk—create silhouettes that breathe with the body, moving naturally in a perfect balance between comfort and refinement. Skirts that start at the waist and fall fluidly, ankle-length or as short as a summer breeze, always with that line that starts at just the right point — neither too high nor too low, exactly where the female body finds her natural balance. Prints complete the collection: 1960s marinière stripes revisited on different fabrics, from poplin to knitwear to silk organza, create timeless pieces, where naturalness becomes the most sought-after luxury, and floral motifs interpreted in a contemporary key lend lightness and movement to the garments, maintaining a constant balance between modernity and tradition.

Naturally chic—not as trend but as a philosophy of life, chic that comes from awareness of one’s own body, from the joy of inhabiting it with grace. The runway show is set against a backdrop of wheat-colored foliage reminiscent of a natural landscape, the proscenium of a confident and self-aware femininity, free from conventions and embracing contrasts.

The SS26 collection celebrates the power of nature and the tangible soul of the Luisa Spagnoli woman: independent, refined, and deeply connected—not with technology but with the world around her. A breathable collection, where there is no artifice, but the power of the truth of the female body finding its most authentic expression. It is also a collection of movement: and the movement does not stop at sunset. Eveningwear dresses that capture the last rays of sunlight, silk that glides like water over tanned skin, always with that natural waistline that is the silent but powerful leitmotif of every Luisa Spagnoli creation.

The theme of natural waistlines—the perfect balance of the female body—is reflected in every garment: from shirts, one of the key pieces of the collection around which everything else revolves, to pants and jackets that respect and celebrate proportions. Italian craftsmanship is evident in every detail: invisible seams that allow the linen to fall perfectly, shaped panels that follow natural curves without constricting them, and darts positioned with millimeter precision to enhance the waist without marking it.

A brand new bag, the LS 1928, presented in different versions such as ultra-soft leather that folds naturally almost like a scarf, or suede or raffia, which will be available in a see-now buy-now version in the Milan Galleria and Milan Corso Vittorio Emanuele II boutiques and online. No outfit is complete without accessories that speak the same natural language: hand-woven raffia clutches, high-heeled or flat leather sandals in black or gold that mold to the foot, hemp rope belts with gold or rhinestone jewelry, such as earring and bracelets, that bring the caress of the sea to the skin.

So naturally: a woman who does not hide behind clothes but uses them to reveal her truest essence—the message of the Luisa Spagnoli SS26 collection is a celebration of femininity in its purest and most powerful form. Sustainable fashion is no longer a choice but a poetic—and ethical—necessity. This collection is dedicated to women who understand that the most refined elegance comes from respect—for themselves, for their bodies, for the earth we inhabit.
