Ferragamo presents the Fall Winter 2026 collection through Maximilian Davis’s continued focus on the 1920s, the decade when the house began. The speakeasy informs the collection’s direction, referencing spaces where dress codes shifted and identity took new form. Sailor uniforms guide silhouette and construction, reflecting migration across water and the search for opportunity. Displaced buttons, undone fastenings, and altered closures reshape familiar uniform references, while knitwear and leather outerwear introduce material depth through surface treatment.

Tracee Ellis Ross, Chloe Kim, Nia DaCosta, Leon Thomas, Fai Khadra, Lori Harvey, Amina Muaddi, Kristina Romanova, Izzi Allain, Amalie Gassmann, Jessie Andrews, Marc Forne, and Alioune Badara Fall sit front row at the Ferragamo Fall Winter 2026 show in Milan. Their presence reflects the collection’s connection to contemporary cultural figures gathered within a shared space.
Material development shapes the collection’s visual direction. Organic cotton canvas and recycled nylon undergo garment dyeing that alters tone, while quilted leather receives aerosol treatments that reshape its surface. Polished Gancini hardware appears across garments and accessories, connecting the collection to established house codes.
Footwear and accessories extend archival references. A pointed silhouette and sling-back construction draw from a flat designed by Salvatore Ferragamo in 1954, while the shell sole informs curved sandal forms. Menswear footwear includes elongated Oxford shoes, a monk shoe with the Hug closure, and a streamlined boot. Accessories include a slim bag secured with a Gancini plate, the Hug bag in updated proportions, a cross-body pocket bag, and a woven calf leather Hug pouch.
