Behind the Blinds

Giorgio Armani is a rare being. In an industry where fashion legacies are switched between designers like trading cards, Armani’s legacy sits on his own shoulders. And what a legacy it is. The designer didn’t just create a look, he defined a generation’s sense of style. It’s no wonder, then, that his shows occupy a special place in the industry’s heart. His Spring/Summer 2026 show was, in a way, no different from his previous ones, and in others, competently different.

How to Train Your Dragon is a much-loved franchise worldwide, for both the original films and the book series. Were you a fan of the story before getting the part of Hiccup? As long as I can remember, How to Train Your Dragon has been a part of my life. It means the world to me. Growing up, my friends and even people my brother’s age all loved it. The movie can appeal to anybody, which is the reason why I love it so much.

For his Emporio Armani SS26 show in Milan, Giorgio Armani seemed to be feeling spiritual. Dressed in shades of earthy tones, the hunky models appeared in variations on mystic wear – long necklaces with coins and tassels were worn on top of vests with matching billowy trousers, tunics with openings on the sides were paired with printed bottoms in sheen fabric and delicate kimono-like coats were juxtaposed with muscled bare chests (no twinks here!) and chunky flip-flops in many variants.

This season, Miuccia Prada and Raf Simons gave us the only consent we’d ever need to be as promiscuous as possible. Prada’s Spring/Summer 2026 opened with its most distinctive piece: a pair of shorter-than-short bloomers with two front pockets. The billowy piece stopped at the top of the thigh, leaving the rest of the leg free to feel the gaping air of the Fondazione it walked in.

Paul Smith knows his way around colour-blocking. For his latest SS26 collection presented in Milan, the English design icon showcased an offering filled with garments in hues that are used in menswear way too rarely (if you ask us). The collection opened with a lineup of looks where psychedelic printed shirts matched the ties worn on top and were worn with loose trousers. A pale chartreuse suede jacket was paired with roomy black shorts, while a fuchsia knit was tucked into cargo-green bottoms.
