Anatomy of Fluidity: SS26 Trends for Fashion, Textiles, and Colors

14 January – 3 pm

Explore the evolving concept of fluidity as it shapes the Spring-Summer 26 fashion season. Created by Li Edelkoort and Trend Union Paris, this trend forecasts textiles that flow, drape, and pleat in response to our human condition—expressing emotions from immense joy to deep sorrow. Fluidity will blur the lines between fashion and identity, creating garments that seem to float, ripple, and transform, while redefining the perception of color and material.
