Keynotes from the shows

Reworked Tailoring

Tailoring breaks rules: softer shoulders, elasticised waists, and dresses-as-coats.

Textural Play

Sheer paneling, hand-stitched quilting, and mixed-weave blends to create tactile interest.

Sustainable Codes

Transparency in sourcing, modular garments, and recyclable trims move further into mainstream.

Trend highlights & practical notes

Layer structured pieces over fluid bases; add a sculptural accessory to shift perception without heavy tailoring. Neutral bases with a single saturated accent work for both day and night.

Prioritise blend garments with clear care labels. Seek pieces with detachable trims and easily replaceable parts to extend lifecycle. Dry-clean sparingly; spot clean where possible.

Watch for certification labels, modular designs, and brands publishing material traceability. Q3X shows a clear increase in upcycled accents and refillable packaging initiatives.

Quick facts

  • Runway span: 3 days
