Undercover Spring/Summer 2026 Womenswear Collection: A New Expression Of Distorted Beauty
Luxferity, 03.10.2025
Following the narrative of the previous “but beautiful 4…”, Undercover unveils its Spring/Summer 2026 Womenswear Collection — a poetic reinterpretation of imperfection that redefines modern luxury. This season, designer Jun Takahashi continues his exploration of beauty in distortion, presenting a collection that merges avant-garde artistry with everyday wearability.

Imperfection As A Language Of Luxury
At the heart of the collection lies asymmetry, distorted patterns, exposed linings, mismatched buttons, and raw hand-stitching. These elements evoke the feeling of garments constructed by untrained hands, where flaws transform into expressions of individuality. The aesthetic recalls handmade stuffed animals, where irregularity becomes charm and imperfection is elevated to an art form.

Inspired By Anne-Valérie Dupond
The Spring/Summer 2026 line draws inspiration from the stuffed animal sculptures of French artist Anne-Valérie Dupond, whose work reimagines softness and imperfection with surreal elegance. Takahashi translates this spirit into womenswear silhouettes, transforming distortion into something distinctly modern, tactile, and luxurious.

From Avant-Garde To Everyday
While rooted in experimental design, the collection seamlessly adapts these artistic elements into real, wearable pieces. The garments embody Undercover’s unique ability to bridge artistic conceptualism and high-fashion craftsmanship, creating clothing that feels both visionary and grounded in practicality.

A Continuation Of Undercover’s Narrative
With this collection, Undercover reinforces its position as one of the most compelling voices in luxury avant-garde fashion. “But beautiful,” becomes more than a theme — it is a philosophy, where imperfection is not only accepted but exalted.
