Year of the Horse: Fashion in Full Gallop

11 February 2026

When one door closes, another always opens. With the Chinese New Year, the Year of the Horse begins in February - a period symbolising movement, power and progress. We clearly feel this energy in the current trend picture. Optimism prevails and translates into powerful, confident looks that radiate boldness.

With a fresh, optimistic wind, timeless staples return, enriched with a subtle western touch. Tough materials and powerful silhouettes give these looks a confident, modern edge. Western influences remain refined and wearable, with an eye for detail rather than excess. Feel free to play with contrasts between classic and rugged for an exciting balance.

Relight my fire

The new year sparks a fiery energy bursting with passion and power. Silhouettes become stronger and more pronounced, crafted in materials that exude power and quality. Bold red takes centre stage: intense, confident and full of character. It is a colour that dares to stand out. Powerful details, fresh combinations and unexpected contrasts give the looks dynamism and create an innovative, energetic look.

Hold on tight — this year is moving full speed ahead. Belts take centre stage as both detail and statement accessory, instantly adding structure and definition to any look. The perfect finishing touch for a season defined by movement, boldness and confidence.

Polo Players

The polo is one of those pieces that always works. Timeless, effortless and endlessly versatile. Wear it casually with denim, layered neatly under a blazer, or styled with a sporty twist. This classic adapts effortlessly and remains relevant season after season.
