The upcoming Autumn-Winter 2026/2027 fashion season is set to embrace a bold aesthetic, drawing inspiration from the architectural movements of brutalism and Gothic design.This trend, dubbed “New Dynasties,” focuses on materials and accessories that marry monumental forms with meticulous detailing, reflecting the strong silhouettes and precise finishes characteristic of brutalist architecture.
Complementing this is the influence of Gothic aesthetics,which will manifest in a palette of deep blacks and dark shades,alongside the prominent use of metal accents. The interplay of light and shadow will be crucial in highlighting rich textures, a hallmark of Gothic style.
The “New Dynasties” trend sees a convergence of brutalism’s minimalist principles and the dramatic flair of Gothic design. This fusion will be evident in luxurious materials that redefine the human form, amplifying volumes and creating a dynamic interplay between poetic and austere, masculine and feminine, and sartorial and experimental styles.
